Talk Like A Pirate Day Video | Ahoy There All Ye Landlubbers, Arrr Me Mateys (And All That)

Posted: 19 Sep 2010 07:03 AM PDT

Today is ‘International Talk Like A Pirate Day’, with September 19 being the one of the year every year that we are all positively encouraged to talk like Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates Of The Caribbean.

I’m usually a stickler for the English language being spoken well, which makes navigating Facebook on a daily basis a bit of a minefield. However, one day out of 365 is fine.

‘International Talk Like A Pirate Day’ has been with us since 1995, and is now celebrated all over the Web and beyond.

The usual rules apply for speaking like a pirate: the letter G no longer exists, Arrr and Argh punctuate every sentence, and a smattering of Ahoy’s, Lasses, and Grog are essential. Enjoy it!

Amazing Race Car Driving Video | Ken Block Tears Up French Track

Posted: 18 Sep 2010 04:04 PM PDT

You don’t need to be a car enthusiast to appreciate the freakish driving of Ken Block. In this video the American thrill seeker tears up l’Autodrome de Linas just south of Paris, France.

This oval track, built in 1924, stretches for 1.58 miles. Its daredevil banks are as steep as 51 degrees; that’s more than twice the incline of most NASCAR ovals for those playing at home.

Ken seems to handle these stunts like a pro, leading us to think he knows the circuit like the back of his hand. But no; this film captures the first time Ken drove the track. Knowing that makes this video all the more impressive.
