Join Our “Talk Like A Pirate” Facebook Party on September 19th
Tis that time of year again! Talk Like A Pirate Day of course! This day was devised over 10 years ago by two buddies speaking pirate while playing tennis. They talked about how fun it would be if the whole country spoke pirate for a day. Bring in columnist Dave Barry who thought this was a grand idea and thus Talk Like A Pirate became an official day on September 19th! You can read more about the founders in our interview with them here. So in celebration of this rather fun and silly day, let’s have a Facebook Party! As you know, we are all about pirates and will have some goodies to hand out and fun will be had! Details below!
