Avast, me hearties! Today is International Talk Like A Pirate Day. (ananova.com) The celebration started in the US in 1995, when two friends, John Baur and Mark Summers, decided that talking like a pirate deserved its own day. September 19 was settled on as the ideal day, because it was Summers' ex-wife's birthday, reports Metro. For several years, Talk Like A Pirate day was a private celebration, with only Baur and Summers (or Ol' Chum Bucket and Cap'n Slappy, as they prefer to be known on September 19) observing it. But that all changed in 2002, when they decided to let US columnist Dave Barry know about their annual party. Barry was quite talen by the idea, and promptly spread the word through his column. From that point, thanks to the power of the internet, Talk Like A Pirate Day spread internationally. Now, ITLAPD has become a phenomenon around the world - helped by Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean. It even has its own website - www.talklikeapirate.com - which offers tips on pirate party ideas, pirate chat-up lines and - bizarrely - how to speak like a pirate in German. | |
