Leading
up to International Talk-Like-A-Pirate Day on September 19, we’re featuring stories about
pirates to get you in the nautical mood. For me, pirate movies begin
with The Goonies. On the eve of their
eviction from their seaside town, a band of friends goes on a sudden adventure
to find hidden pirate treasure and save all of their futures.
Do
I really need to say anything more about this!
How
to Commemorate:- Search for hidden treasure (There is still plenty out there!).
- Visit a place that found hidden treasure (like, you know, a museum).
- Invent some gadgets.
- Make a treasure map.
- Quote the movie (especially “Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here!”).
Remember:
Goonies never say die!
