We're sure you don't really need reminding, but today is Talk Like A Pirate Day [1] - in fact extended into one long buckaneer-lingo weekend since the internationally famous celebration falls on a Friday, me hearties.

Nuff said, really, except to add that it's time to get fired up on grog, keelhaul Noel Edmonds [2], give Sarah Palin [3] a lick o' the cat* and burn the good ship Seinfeld [4] to the waterline, having plundered his chest of Redmond gold. Yaaaaarrrrr... ®

*Or lick Sarah Palin's cat, if ye will.
