Dress Like A Sea Dog

It's too bad my Irish ancestors were prone to whiskey or surrendering to one viking ship to have ever gotten into pirating. (With the exception of the lovely Grace O'Malley, of course)

But I'll give it to the English. They had it down good. I would love to attend a gathering of this sort, and splice the mainbrace with fellow pirate kin, even if it was just speculation.

With all that pillaging and looting, it could be one of the bloodiest reunions in history when descendants of six of Britain's famous pirates are invited to a get-together.

Be sure to read the 10 pirate facts.

Remember - next month, September 19th, is Talk Like A Pirate Day!

And I thought Pirates Of The Carribbean: At World's End was much better than the second movie.

So that's all the pirate news I have today.
