International Talk Like a Pirate Day 2017

By
Real Estate Agent

Today, September 19th is a special day for me each year.  It's International Talk Like a Pirate Day.  To celebrate, it's important to cater to your very own inner pirate. For those who do not know about this special holiday, you can gain insight and even a little pirate lexicon to add to your own vocabulary at the website linked here: "Days of the Year - Talk Like a Pirate Day."

I went to Hallmark looking for the appropriate card for this holiday to no avail

We need to kick Hallmark into gear, Paul.  However, Facebook allows you change your language preference to Pirate.  Here's a link telling you how to do it: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-change-your-facebook-language-to-pirate-n/

Oh, no, I forgot about Talk Like a Pirate Day. Oh well, there will be another next year! You've got to remind me, Myrl. I'm a day late and a dollar short. Although I did go to Ella for lunch today and splurged on a chantilly cream and melon milkshake.

Missed it but love the picture. However on the 19th I had an issue with a builder who acts like a pirate even though he doesn't talk like one.

Hahaha, this reminds me of my old days in Broadcasting. We would have our listeners call in using their best Pirate voices. What fun. Thanks for the reminder and you look great in your hat. D

We deal daily with expletive rich buyers and sellers that could hold their own with a jolly roger waving stolen frigate ship motley crew. Nice image Myrl Jeffcoat !

Hi, Myrl -- while I "missed" the official day, I believe there are those who celebrate "Talk Like A Pirate Week".   Do you save up all the pirate in you for just one day?
