Y'ARG!!!!
Talk Like A Pirate Day!!!
Land Ho!
And other pirate related thoughts.
How does a pirate find his way home?
By looking at the st'args!
Where does a pirate buy his rum?
At a b'arg!
I never understood the old sailors' superstition that it's bad omen to have a woman on board. Why? Because she'll get pregnant and then divide the crew in jealousy? But think of the fun you'd have in the mean time.
Yeah for successful Chinese pirates! How come I never heard anything about her when I was growing up?
Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on who you are I suppose), modern piracy is in decline. The last act of piracy I heard of (on the high seas that is, har har) involved an American luxury liner. It was attacked by 2 pirate ships off the coast of Somalia and repelled the attack by using a "long range acoustic device" (essentially blasting very loud noise) and running the other ship over. That's just sad.
