As I'm sure everyone is aware, September 19 is International Talk Like a Pirate Day (except in England, where every day is talk like a pirate day).
In the event Shanna actually goes into labor on Wednesday she set the following ground rules:

  1. I am only allowed to make this joke once: What's a it called when a pirate has a baby? Lab-ARRR!
  2. The doula is not to be referred to as "The birthin' wench"
  3. The doctor is not to be referred to as "Bones"
  4. When it comes time to push, I am to say "Push" not "Give 'em a broadside."
  5. Only Shanna is allowed to say "Shiver me timbers".
  6. Failure to follow these rules will result in someone being keel hauled.

    I thought of another one - if my water breaks - only I can say "Thar she blows!".

    I guess that isn't so much pirate as whaler...is there talk like a whaler day??
