National Campaign Like a Pirate Day!
September 19, 2006
Harr me mateys! Today be Talk Like a Pirate Day and I be having such fun with it that I, the Disembodied Head of Dick Devos, Captain of the Amway and Scourge of the Five Lakes do name tomorrow, September 20th, the first ever National Campaign Like a Pirate Day in honor of the scurvy crew of the HMS Florida and election-stealing pirates everywhere!
Captain Dick, Black Betsy, Ruthless Ruth Johnson, Slippery John Truscott and the rest of me gang of black-hearted rogues will be spreading dubloons from one end of the Michigan Main to the other, and we won’t rest ’till any who dare oppose us are walking the plank, dancing from the yardarm or on the jolly boat for China!
So sharpen up your cutlasses (or Diebold key), hoist the mainsail and set a course for Lansing … or anywhere else there’s votes to be plundered!!
I’ve fired a broadside across the bow of the King of France!
