Dust Off Your Eye Patch, Matey!

That's right folks, it's that time again - Talk Like a Pirate Day! Granted, this isn't a major holiday, but it's popular enough to warrant articles in national papers like the Christian Science Monitor and USA Today. So, don't waste this chance to find your inner pirate.


And, if you're in the Raleigh area during the next few months, get your "booty" over to the Knights of the Black Flag exhibit at the North Carolina Museum of History. Not only will you learn lots of cool things about pirates through the ages, but you'll see artifacts from Blackbeard's flagship Queen Anne's Revenge. The most ingruiging thing in the exhibit though is the (alleged) skull of Blackbeard himself - and if that doesn't make you say 'Aargh', nothing will . . .


Yo Ho HO, a Pirate's Life for Me!
