September 19th - International Talk Like a Pirate Day!!!
I choose to talk like Betty from YellowBeard...
Betty: Well, it's been awhile since we had a little cuddle.
Yellowbeard: I raped ya, if that's what you mean.
Betty: Okay. It was half-cuddle, half-rape.
Yellowbeard: I'm sure I killed the last one I raped, it can't have been you.
Betty: Well, the afterplay was a bit on the rough side, but not fatal dear.
[Betty throws a book Dan had been reading on the floor]
Betty: Read, read, read, read! Let me tell you something - last time I read a book, I was raped. Let THAT be a lesson to you.
And the best...
Betty: [Recreating the path to where the treasure is burried] Stagger, stagger, crawl, crawl, jump...
Arrrrr!!! Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day Ya Landlubbers!!!

BroMaynardG: We were selling Pirate Corn. At a Buck an Ear! LOL
Myanmar!
We were selling Pirate Corn. At a Buck an Ear!
"BUCK" = a dollar or similar national currencies (particularly in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, South Africa and United States).
An "Ear of corn"- The name is not related as you would expect to the ear that we hear with. It comes from the Gothic word for 'husk of corn' which was ahs.
The buccaneers were pirates who attacked Spanish, French, and Dutch shipping in the Caribbean Islands during the late 17th century.
The term buccaneer is now used generally as a synonym for pirate. Originally, buccaneer crews were larger, more apt to attack coastal cities, and more localized to the Caribbean than later pirate crews who sailed to the Indian Ocean on the Pirate Round in the late 17th century.
We were selling "Pirate Corn". At a "Buccaneer". Translated
Not as funny as what I first posted, at least from the Estados Unidos point of view!
(But my clients at Farmers' Market - loved the joke!" 'cause we sold it for only 50 cents an ear and it was NOT Pirate Corn! [Only the joke was.]) (Sold out of 6 bags by Noon!)
Finally, for the Triple Entendre - "Corny" as in 3 Stooges Humor - "Corn·y (kôrn)
adj. corn·i·er, corn·i·est
Trite, dated, melodramatic, or mawkishly sentimental.
"So ridiculous that it makes you laugh" In a Coconut Husk it =s "Monty Python"!
Do I win?
Myanmar!
- - - That was only an 'ear ago?
Myanmar!
