Yarr... It be only Rock and Roll...

Today, September, 19th, is National "Talk Like a Pirate Day". It's also my birthday, and according to the Ancient Comedy Gods Rules and Behaviors Handbook, whatever I say today goes.

So, in addition to talking like those endearing and cursed seamen, I say we all act like the indestructible Keith Richards for the day. Drink through that liquor cabinet! Smoke anything that roles tightly into a cocktail napkin! Snort your Dad's ashes! ...Uh...

You'll probably lose your job, wife and hunting license, but think of all the new photos you'll have to post on your Flickr page!

If you need a starting-off point, here's a beautiful little video of Keith thwarting the horrible evil that is a Rolling Stones fan:



He doesn't even miss a cord.

Now if you'll excuse me, thar be wenches ta plunder and goat's head soup to devour. Yargh.

BTW: I'll be at Gritty's in Portland, ME from 4pm on today. Anyone who wants to buy a real Fake Rockstar a beer is welcome. I'll be the one surrounded by fake friends.
