International talk like a pirate day

Day 02: Table, Lamp & Treasure Map
You certainly don't need Amver to tell you the scourge of piracy around the world.  Piracy has grown to proportions not seen in years, leaving governments scrambling to dust off piracy laws and spawning a pirate stock market.

But stepping back and looking at piracy a little differently it's easy to see the humor in International Talk Like a Pirate Day.  Every year on September 19th people celebrate talking like a buccaneer.

How are you celebrating Talk Like a Pirate Day matey?
