Grog all round!

Ahoy, me fine wenches! Today we splice the main brace, for today be Talk Like A Pirate Day.

If ye feel yer pirate lingo needs improvin', ye can run yer text through a landlubber-to-pirate translatin' machine, and all ye swabs can get a proper Pirate Name here, if ye can't think o' one yerselves. Arrr!

They call me Meatcleaver Mary, an' I aims to know who yer favorite pirate may be. Fer me, while I had thoughts o' t' Dread Pirate Roberts an' Granuaille an' Captain Jack Sparrow, thar's one pirate that has t' come first:

( Nebula the Pirate Queen )

( Armwrestlin' the lads )

( In action )

( Lookin' for booty )

( With her cabin boy )

(These pictures ta'en from the Hercules episodes Faith and Web o' Desire.)

Now tell me, who be yer favorite pirate, an' what be yer pirate name?
