Talk Like a Pirate Day Vocab-- Part 1: "Arrrrggghhh!!


From the September 15, 2013, Goldsboro (NC) News-Argus.

Avast There Me Matey!! It's International Talk Like a Pirate Day today, September 19th.

This day is always held on September 19th and is the brainchild of two friends, John Baur and Mark Summers, who, according to the newspaper, came up with the idea while playing raquetball.

However, to me, a better explanation would be in a bar over a few cocktails (perhaps grog).

The date was selected because it is Summers' wife's birthday.

Hey, it's something to do.

No Lubbers 'Lowed Round Here Today. Aye, Matey.  --Cooter
