T'day be th' best damn holly-day f'r remembrance that we all be kids at hARRRt, Mateys!
- First thing we be handin' t' yer grasping hands, be the OFFICIAL-type theme song, written by none other than Tom "Cap'n Smitty" Smith his own self! But, bein' a wench who be a connoisseur o' Filk, FuMP, an' Dementia, here be three different versions o' this titillating tune1:
- First, be th' original presentation, live at PenguiCon 2004, and sung wi' th' likes o' special guests Steve Jackson2 an' The Great Luke Ski3! [ Talk Like a Pirate Day ]
- Nex' be th' firs' time Cap'n Smitty included this here masterwork 'pon an album! Made it hisself with a CD-ARRR! [ Talk Like a Pirate Day ]
- An' las' but not leas' by inny stretch o' th' imaginings, Cap'n Smitty singing wi' none other'n { The Pirate Guys } theyselves live, at CapriCon 2008! [ Talk Like a Pirate Day ]
- Here, we be havin' a navigator what knows how t' get t' { Cap'n Smitty's Island } th' easy way!
- An' here be th' chart t' get yerself to the home o' { The Pirate Guys }4 safely!
- An' las' we has, f'r yer everlovin' convenience, { Th' Bleedin' Lyrics } as transcribed by meself, better known in some parts as "Tha' Blackeney Wench," comin' 'pon a year ago!
I hopes this be jus' th' thing, t' git all o' ye bilgerats t' enjoy yerselves an' let go on this, th' most fun an adult c'n have holly-day!

I don't know
where you find this stuff, but thanks a bunch. Funny!
no moe piates!
I actually went to an Intenational Talk Like A Piate Day paty yesteday. Sue it sounded like fun, but it was about the most obnoxious thing I eve expeienced. This may be because I was a bit olde than all the 20 & 30-somethings in attendance, o because me and my dea fiend Anais both ween't dinking the gog---shots of um and um and cokes--like eveyone else (although I did indulge in a few hits of the maijuana- I know, I know I'm a hoible dug addict, but actually this was my fist time since last Chistmas, and pobably the last until I get dagged to anothe stupid paty...), we eteated to the patio ealy on, to babacue the pok & pineapple etc, and whee we could hold on a nomal convesation about something besides who's a bilge-swilling scuvy dog o not. Being with my best gilfiend Anais is always fun & special, whateve the cicumstances. As a esult I can't even bing myself to use that accused lette today!
for the axe had convinced them that because his handle
was made of wood he was one of them.
So you'rrrrrre giving up RRRRRR for now?
And I thought that my spelling skills had rubbed off on you, Laika.
