Bits and bobs

LanguageLog is making sure everyone is ready for Talk Like a Pirate Day tomorrow. Scroll to the bottom of the entry - they have links to previous TLAPDay entries, which include where the notion that pirates say "Arr!" comes from.

And most of the potential participants probably saw it yesterday, but I have a post about the elements of a powerful ending (primarily in manga, but books/movies/whatever are also relevant) up. Just mentioning it here again since teh intarwebs are more talky on Mondays than on Sundays.



And poetry, even!

The sun is shining
The sky is blue
The birds are singing
Mello hates you

Tomorrow is talk like a pirate day? That is so cool! It's my birthday tomorrow, and I get to be all salty, too? I must practice my "Arrrrr, avast"s then. Hee!
