AVAST, ye mateys!


Happy Talk Like A Pirate Day!!!

I cannot even begin to expound on all the virtues of such a national celebration, so I shall simply direct you here for further inspiration. Oh, and here and here, since all my friends have apparently decided that sharing such resources is absolutely imperative...

However, the best quote I've gotten all day (and it's only 9:59 am! Could this day get any better?!) was from a body collector (yes, that means he's in charge of picking up dead bodies and parts thereof, and bringing them to the morgue...) in Detroit:

"My theory? White people kill themselves. Black people kill each other. Chinese people don't die."

How can I deny my immortality??

I'm a little bit sad about my future...can I be honorary Chinese?

I made the most wonderful Malibu Rum Cake for our pirate party tonight (though I used imitation coconut and rum extract instead of malibu rum). Yeah. You won't be there. Pi-ty.

I'm so dissapointed that I didn't know about this sooner, I feel like I missed out on what could have been one of the best days of my life!

Dear Handsome Rob--

I have been trying and trying and trying to post a comment on your blog thanking you for your lovely public apology, but MSN Spaces is obnoxious, doesn't work, blinks frequently, and doesn't let me post comments. You should switch to Blogger. The end. :)
