everything but the girl

Today is Talk Like a Pirate Day!

And I am going to see Barack Obama at UM this morning.

Wonder if *he* will talk like a pirate? Because something like this would be amazing:

Obama speaks,"Aye we can!"

I could make a joke that Irked!John McCain sounds like a pirate all the time: Arrrrrrrr! Ye kids best be getting off my ship lawn!

And here is Joe Biden's acceptance speech from last month, as translated into pirate:

The pirate speaks,"Let me make this pledge t' you starboard here and now. For every American who be tryin' t' do t' starboard thin', for all those people in government who be honorin' t' pledge t' uphold t' law and honor t' Constitution, no longer will you hear t' eight most-dreaded words in t' English language, "T' vice president's office be on t' phone.""

Some Pirate!Palin:

Avast! Alaska be secceedin' from the union!

Okay, probably not - that's more Todd.
