Capt Scarlett Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Ahoy Mates! Looks like there are more pirates getting an education these days. As I was swaggerin' toward the library here on campus at ASU, I noticed there was words scribbled on the stairs in multi-colored chalk. Words and phrases like "Talk like a Pirate Day" We are pirates. right?, Dread Pirate Roberts wuz here, Blimey, Arrrrrr, Remember Captain Hook? and What would Blackbeard do? I was quite happy to see that I wasn't only one celebratin' today as I strode about wearin' my Pirates of the Carribbean shirt (from the ride). Happy Talk like a Pirate day! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Fair winds and calm seas, Captain Scarlett Hawkins Captain of the Lusty Lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Touring Gentleman Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Arrr! Even I be talkin' wit' da gravel ta-day, mates. ...And to think TLAP was started on a raquetball court. Thinking "what kind of pirates be these?" was I, but then I remember that curse-ed little ball. Beaned by a broadside once or twice meself, I was. Iffin thats what it takes, so be it. Only by great risks can great results be achieved. -Xerxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Gracie Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 lkg,Sep 19 2003, 04:59 PM] "talk like a pirate day not commite piate fellonies" I've gotta tip me hat to that one. Cause ya know there'd be some dumb arses out there using it as an excuse. Kinda goes along with those people who are suing McDonalds because, It made them fat. Or the woman from years ago who sued some contraceptive company because she used the contraceptive jelly on her toast & she got pregnant. It pains me to know that there are people out there who are just this stupid. ~Mad Gracie~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Touring Gentleman Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 Ah, TLAP is over... I'm back to the King's English. I've gotta tip me hat to that one. Cause ya know there'd be some dumb arses out there using it as an excuse... It pains me to know that there are people out there who are just this stupid. Yes, my dear, it is a shame... yet these unfortunates you describe are as inevitable as mosquitos in a swamp. On the bright side, without candidates and nominees, we wouldn't be able to celebrate the "Darwin Awards." Only by great risks can great results be achieved. -Xerxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Pirata Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Unfortunately I was unable to talk like a Pirate on the 19th, surviving the wreckage of Hurricane Isabel was more important. I did, prior to losing electricity for 4 days, read the top 10 pirate pick-up lines. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
