Arrrrr! I hates it when Talk Like a Pirate Day falls on Sunday! It just ain’t in th’ spirit o’ the thing, don’t ya know. It seems ye swabs carried on admirally, all the same. So will the post office be open today? I want to hail my beautiful sister-in-law, Mo, and tell her, “Happy Birthday!” I can always remember her birthday, acause it comes one day after Talk Like a Pirate Day. She’s been known to pull th’ cork out of a crock o’ rhum on special occasions. Here’s to ye, me hearty! Tell that motley crew of yorn that ol’ Jim said to treat you like Leucothea herself. Arrrr….!!
