Ahoy the boat, Corsair Cat! A fine day ye picked for shore leave. T'was a fine piratical day's work here... no one swabbunk any decks an' I'm proud to say it; we drank grog, sang shanties, passed the grog again, did some knittin'... avast! I mean wenchin', o' course... Cook served up a mess o' pasta for grub...then a daft bilge rat suggested a raid on a lily-livered privateer called the "Rubber Room," but by then the hearties was too full o' grub an' grog to shift their pins, the lazy jacks. So we belayed that, and passed the grog again. Now the whole lot o' scurvy sea-dogs has struck their colours and are snorin' away like moonstruck lubbers ...but there's nay swag to divvy, sorry to say; not so much as a ha-penny to show for it. ... And that, me beauty, is why they call me Pirate Jean the Cash-Strapped.

Pirate speak....

Translated into english: "I have heard it through rumor and the grapevine that the nefarious pirate hacking group known as Two Man Crew have broken the copy protection on a very sought-after piece of software, World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade. Furthermore, they did it on the same day the game was released. They are worthy of praise, and the rest of you are female dogs by comparison. I laugh at my own wit."

You say that as if it were a bad thing. Be not fooled, nor foolish. (insert, over the glasses whithering glare here)

In the Walden household, the female dog is commencing to have pups. We are very happy.

Anybody here besides me addicted to Sid Meier's Pirates? Besides being a very fun game, it has some oddly compelling music. The "Attacking a City" theme has become one of my favorite whistle tunes.

I taught my kids sea shanties tuesday, and my white board remains covered with pirate vocabulary.

"Arrrr, raise yer hands an' wait ta be called on, ye mangy bilge rats, er I'll keel haul the lot of ye!"

I love my job.
