East Carolina Pirates tomorrow is your day. September 19 is International Talk Like A Pirate Day. Don’t believe me? Check out talklikeapirate.com, it’s in the domain name and everything!
 

The website offers such inspirational books as “Pirattitude: So you Wanna Be A Pirate? Here’s How!” and “The Pirate Life: Unleashing Your Inner Buccaneer.” But if you’re a modern day student with modern day needs, celebrate the holiday by downloading a new application for your iPhone: the ayePhone.
 

That’s right, the ayePhone, made by Area 45 software, lets you live vicariously as a pirate tomorrow and every day. The application makes pirate sounds, such as “yo ho ho” and “walk the plank,” and allows you to feel like a real, live pirate, but without the puffy shirt and eye patch and plundering and all that.
 

So, East Carolina Pirates, revel in your school spirit, and everyone else grab some booty and celebrate: International Talk Like a Pirate Day is coming.
