Don't miss out on Talk Like a Pirate Day! Conceived in 1995 in Albany, Oregon, by two guys who found themselves talking like pirates while playing racquetball at the Y, Talk Like a Pirate Day caught Dave Barry's imagination a few years ago and now it's an international event. Read the whole story, or check out some amusing links; you can even shop for your own personal pirate flag (manufactured right here in Eugene). If you just need a few handy phrases to get you through the day, try this English-to-Pirate translator, or if you happen to be keyboard_monkey, go directly here.
