camwynIn case you missed this Sunday's column in your newspaper, Dave Barry has proposed something I think this world needs very badly.
Arrrrr! Talk like a pirate -- or prepare to be boarded
... Today I want to tell you about two such people, John Baur and Mark Summers, who have come up with a concept that is going to make you kick yourself for not thinking of it first: Talk Like a Pirate Day. As the name suggests, this is a day on which everybody would talk like a pirate. Is that a great idea, or what? There are so many practical benefits that I can't even begin to list them all.
The proposed date is September 19th. Whaddya say? Everything's better with pirates!
Today's pulp survival tip is #74. Unless the item you have been searching for, finally found, and nearly lost grants you the ability to fly, don't bother trying to grab it when it falls to a ledge on the side of a bottomless gorge two or three fingers' widths out of your reach.
