Ahoy, me hearty! If you haven't already heard, today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day! It's a parodic holiday invented in 1995 by John Baur (Ol' Chumbucket) and Mark Summers (Cap'n Slappy), of Corvallis, Oregon, who proclaimed September 19 each year as the day when everyone in the world should talk like a pirate. Many websites, including us (look at our logo) have already made a few changes. Google has a pirate translation, and Facebook and Friendfeed are also celebrating!
