Countdown Clock to September 19th....Talk Like A Pirate Day... Arghhhh.
















International Talk Like a Pirate Day
(ITLAPD) is a parodic holiday invented in 1995 by John Baur ("Ol' Chum Bucket") and Mark Summers ("Cap'n Slappy"), of the United States, who proclaimed September 19 each year as the day when everyone in the world should talk like a pirate.[1] For example, an observer of this holiday would greet friends not with "Hello", but with "Ahoy, me hearty!" The date was selected because it was the birthday of Summers's ex-wife and consequently would be easy for him to remember.

The basics

Pirate lingo is rich and complicated, sort of like a good stew. There are several other sites that offer glossaries that are pretty good, and you can find some of them on our links page.

Hey.....I'm Feeling Less Hungry Already.........

FDA Approves Seconds
WASHINGTON, DC—In a surprising reversal of its longtime single-helping policy, the Food and Drug Administration announced its approval of seconds Tuesday, claiming that an additional plateful of food with every meal can greatly reduce the risk of hunger as well as provide an excellent source of deliciousness.

Once restricted to the head of the household, on Thanksgiving, or to those who had been extra good, seconds will now be made available to the general public in over-the-kitchen-counter form. The FDA also recommended moderation in consuming seconds. Researchers in the seconds field have noted occasional side effects, such as hardly being able to get up from the table, pants-loosening, drowsiness, and the feeling that one "might explode" if one eats just one more bite. Other nutritionists suggest that the need for seconds could be eliminated by an initial very large, or "heaping," helping.

Jersey Jam 2007

On Saturday August 11, I had the pleasure to attend the 2007 Jersey Jam. The State's largest Disc Golf event which has been played for the last 35 Years (25 Years with pole holes). The weather was gorgeous, and I was pleasantly surprised that Cubby was able to get out of work to participate in a Tournament. I competed in the Advanced GrandMaster (over 50) Division.

I was very unsatisfied with my first round of 72 but followed it up with a second round 64. This was good enough for a First Place Tie. Ray and I had a Sudden Death Playoff which I was able to edge out a 1 stroke victory. Below is a pic of my Disc winnings from the Jam.

I later found out that our friend Big John had been mistakenly omitted from the GrandMaster Division and that he had shot the same score as Ray and I which would have placed him in a three way tie with us. It was very unfortunate that Big John was not able to compete in our playoff.

Taco Bell Signs Former College Basketball Star To Record Two-Month, $5.15-An-Hour Contract

NEWARK, NJ—A downtown Taco Bell announced Monday the signing of Antwaine Hooks, the Most Valuable Player of University of Connecticut's 1995-96 basketball team. The record-setting eight-week contract, worth an estimated $1,560, is the lowest ever signed by an All-American.

Hooks, 19, a Newark native who as a sophomore last year averaged 19.3 points and 8.4 rebounds, was drafted by the Sacramento Kings in the 1997 NBA Draft, but failed to make the team. He was subsequently cut from the New Jersey Nets practice squad.

The 6' 10" Hooks is expected to start immediately for his new team. "His first day is tomorrow, and I plan to have him in there from the get-go," said Reggie Witherspoon, the store's assistant day-shift manager. "Lashonda [Ewell] called in sick, so he'll be alternating between the grill and dining-area wipedown in the morning, and I'm going to start training him on register in the afternoon. From what I've seen of Hooks, he looks like he could be a serious impact cashier."

The record-breaking minimum-wage deal bests the previous low, a $5.50-an-hour, three-month contract offered by a Covington, KY, Dairy Queen to Jerrod Dawes, the University of Louisville's point guard from 1993 to 1996.
