By The Way...

Avast! Tomorrow is International Talk Like a Pirate Day, and I wanted to make sure you got enough head start to warm your favorite salty dog phrases and expressions. To get you all in the swing, here is me looking all scurvy for ye:

You can see that I prepared by not shaving for a week, and forgoing the landlubber practice of "bathing." In lieu of a parrot, I was going to balance a cat on my shoulder, but strangely none of the three cats seemed up for that. They be walkin' the plank for sure, arrr. Also, ye should nae ask on the sword. It was "given" to me by one who now sleeps in Davy Jones locker. Shiver me timbers! Talking like a pirate is fun!

So remember: Pirate talk tomorrow. No reason except that it'll be fun to go through the drive through and say: "Avast! Prepare me a Quarter Pounder and smartly, else ye be keelhauled!" Trust me, people working in fast food love that sort of thing. Except, ironically, the guys that work at Long John Silver's. Who knew?
