ARRR!
In case you don't know what this is, September 19th is the
official talk like a pirate day .
So I hope that you will join me in making the FBC a supporter of the talk like a pirate day.
So, from here on out, all my posts for the day will be in pirate lingo, I hope that you'll do the same...
(If you need some help, here's a translator:

Top Ten Pickup lines for use on International Talk Like a Pirate Day wrote: 10 . Avast, me proud beauty! Wanna know why my Roger is so Jolly? 9. Have ya ever met a man with a real yardarm? 8. Come on up and see me urchins. 7. Yes, that is a hornpipe in my pocket and I am happy to see you. 6. I'd love to drop anchor in your lagoon. 5. Pardon me, but would ya mind if fired me cannon through your porthole? 4. How'd you like to scrape the barnacles off of me rudder? 3. Ya know, darlin’, I’m 97 percent chum free. 2. Well blow me down? And the number one pickup line for use on International Talk Like a Pirate Day is … 1. Prepare to be boarded. Bonus pickup lines (when the ones above don't work, as they often won't) They don’t call me Long John because my head is so big. You’re drinking a Salty Dog? How’d you like to try the real thing? Wanna shiver me timbers? I’ve sailed the seven seas, and you’re the sleekest schooner I’ve ever sighted. Brwaack! Polly want a cracker? … Oh, wait. That’s for Talk Like a PARROT Day. That’s the finest pirate booty I’ve ever laid eyes on. Let's get together and haul some keel. That’s some treasure chest you’ve got there.
Dang it, all this talk of Talk like a Pirate Day has the "Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me" song stuck in my head.

So a pirate walks into a bar with a ship's steering wheel sticking out of his fly. The bartender says, "Buddy, you look uncomfortable", to which the pirate replies:
"Yaaar, it's drivin' me nuts!"

I wish I hadn't been at work all day yesterday. Kind of hard to talk like a pirate there. Luckily, I was able to get some pirate talk in before I left.
