International Talk Like A Pirate Day Is On Friday!
Okay, I never heard of this holiday before, either, but it sounds like fun and a reason to have some grog. It’s coming up on September 19th, so put your tri-cornered learning caps on and brush up on your pirate lingo here: http://www.talklikeapirate.com/howto.html
If you’re in the French Quarter on friday, you’re in luck. There’s plenty of pirate history here, and plenty of places for pirates to hang out and drink. Having pirate-ish fun is a daily thing here. It’s not unusual to see people in full on pirate gear on any given day of the week.
