Where's Pam? She shines on Talk like a Pirate Day. Unfortunately, I don't. I wish it were cold weather. Then I could say, "It's cold enough ta freeze the barnacles off a frigate." I have no clue what barnacles are, but it sounds very pirate-ish. Sherry > Oh yeah. Where's Pam? She shines on Talk like a Pirate Day. Also, doesn't someone - maybe Theresa - have a brother whose birthday is today? I remember last year she posted saying, "OMG, *DON'T LET MY BROTHER FIND OUT*!!" (about Talk Like a Pirate Day). LOL. > Unfortunately, I don't. I wish it were cold weather.

They cling to the sides of boats and cause no end of misery to the boat's owner. I'm sure a boat owner here could tell you much more about them. Arrrr!

And in lieu of boat owners, there's always the trusty wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnacle  SignatureChristine in Laitila, Finland christal63 (at) gmail (dot) com photos: http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/bb108/christal63/ photos: http://community.webshots.com/user/chkr63 > > Oh yeah.

I remember last year she posted saying, "OMG, *DON'T LET > MY BROTHER FIND OUT*!!" (about Talk Like a Pirate Day). LOL. Exactly right!-- actually, I posted the story above. It was my brother's wife who didn't want him to know. ;) > > Unfortunately, I don't. I wish it were cold weather. Then I could say, > > "It's cold enough ta freeze the barnacles off a frigate."

Barnacles are little devils that fasten onto the keel of a boat and won't let go, whatever you do to them. They're the reason that boat owners paint the bottom of their boats with pisonous paint, that then leaches into the sea, causing much more damage than the barnacles would. It's a wicked circle.

It's a wicked circle. In the past, wealthy boat owners would clad the hulls of their boats with copper to stop barnales. Hence the term "copper bottom investment".

It's also my brother's birthday. A few years ago, when I first heard of TLAPD, I called him up, and got my SIL instead. I told her it was International Talk Like A Pirate Day, and she said "PLEASE, PLEASE don't tell your brother that." ;) Hehe last night at fire practice, I was talking to my friend and he said, "oh yeah it's Talk like a Pirate day." And I said, "Uh, no my voice sounds like this cause my throat hasn't recovered from Burning Man."
