Arrr! Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of 307 Ale®! It be th' 14th annual International Talk Like A Pirate Day. Set yer sails fer this here website to find out what all th' fuss be about.

Just in time for the occasion, th' author o' th' Day's official anthem, Cap'n Smitty (AKA filkertom), has gone and composed a terrifyingly romantic new ballad. Ye can give it a listen on his iTom website here...an' even scavenge a copy fer yer own home listenin' pleasure. (I'd say ye could pirate one, except he be givin' it away free t' all comers. Kinda takes th' piratical fun outta th' thing, but what th' hey.)

If that little ditty be not t' yer likin', name me yer own favorite silly sea shanty here below. Me own personal fav'rite happens t' be "Privateers of the Public Airwaves" by The Foremen. Consider yer timbers shivered, yer swash buckled and th' Jolly Roger hoisted high!
