Arr! I be Iron Harry Cash. I be the true sacker o' Portobello, o' San Juan and San Agustino! Ye land-lubbers ha'e ne'er seen a pirate the likes o' me! I sacked Havana with a boat and my cat, sent the Spanish runnin' with their tails 'tween their legs I did! I sacked Cartagena with a few stolen Royal Navy frigates! YARRRRR!!! *grabs sword, puts on tricorne, and fancy uniform* Ha'e any o' ye fellers been to Manila? I ha'e as well...sacked it good I did! With me crew, I plundered the galleons and took dubloons by the barrel! What about Cadiz? Y'ave ne'er plundered Cadiz? Ahhh...I was so close once, but the arrival of a few Spanish boats under a laddie named Don Juan Meija stopped me before I could get off a shot! TIS NOT WHAT I WANTED!! YARRRRRRRR!!!!!
But have ye experienced the misfortune of mutiny? HA'E YE?! Ye haven't experienced wha's like to have the men...who you've served with for a long time...and they betray ye and take yer posessions, and leave you! LIKE THEY LEFT ME!! They left me in Puerto Rico, in a cave tied up...and I escaped...by biting my way through the rope around my neck...and by scrapin' me arms on the wall to untie the rope on me wrists! AND THAT BE HOW I'M HERE!!

Re: International Talk Like A Pirate Day
Arr! Be it a cutlass duel or a drinking one, ye scurvy dog!? Did if ever tell you the time I was in Havana, and I killed fifty of the King of Spain's men with one arm broken and with only a sharpened spoon? Or when I sunk the French fleet off Tortuga with only a sinking sloop, half me men dying of scurvy, the other half infected with the clap after being to a dodgy whore-house in Barbados. And all our powder was wet! There is no man on the Seven Seas, alive or dead, who can outdrink me, outroger me or outfight me!Arrrrrrrrr!
