Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!  

Posted by Dreamented

In honor of International Talk Like a Pirate Day, for the rest of the day you can call me - Dread Pirate Kidd: 


"Like the famous Dread Pirate Roberts, you have a keen head for how to make a profit. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!"

Where to begin?

I suppose the biggest challenge facing anyone beginning a new blog (or any other new endeavor for that matter) is how to kick it off, where to start, and what will stand the test of time when one day - years and hundreds blogs from now - one looks back on the very first entry to reminisce about where it all began. 


And so, despite knowing that this will ultimately prove to be hugely unsatisfying in the rear view mirror, I'll just wait for inspiration to strike, rather than ramble off a page-full of random, uninspired thoughts that one day will illicit a "what the f**** was I thinking?" chortle.

That'll do, pig.
