The time is coming...



Just another friendly reminder, International Talk Like a Pirate Day is less than a month away.

And while we are on the subject of Pirates, if you are so lucky to get the Poopdeck e-newsletter from John "Ol Chumbucket" you would have seen this tasty treat. It seems that ABC has recruited the family of one of the founders of ITLAPD to be on wife swap;

Wench Swap – Pirates Capture ABC!

We are almost completely recovered now from our reality TV experience
and have been given permission by the network to tell you about the
show.

We did an episode of ABC's "Wife Swap," which of course we call "Wench
Swap." We are told the episode will be the first of the season – airing
Sept. 18, just in time for everyone's favorite holiday, International
Talk Like a Pirate Day! How perfect is that?

My wife, Mad Sally, went south to the very orderly, organized and beige
home of a very orderly and organized (not to say lifeless, dull, and
non-piratical) family, while that family's plastic wife/mother came
north to the chaotic, messy, unorganized pirate home of the saucy,
salty Baurs. Hilarity, as the saying goes, ensues.

We stood up for pirates everywhere, and there will be moments when
pirate fans cheer, others when they seethe with anger! Maybe even brush
away a tear? Or say, "What the hell was THAT all about?" So watch "Wife
Swap" Monday, Sept. 18, 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific time, 7 p.m. Central
and Rocky Mountain. Then drop us a message in a bottle and tell us what
ye think.

So everyone make sure you watch Wench, I mean Wife Swap on Sept. 18th.

Have a good one, Jared
