Aaarrrrgggghhhh! Coincidence? Methinks Not!

T’is I, Prickly Pete, here to tell ya that in addition to being Primary Day here in Massachusetts, it is a day of far greater import! It is INTERNATIONAL TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY!

We see three fine Buccaneers – although the tall one sniffs he’s a Privateer – makin’ a dead set on the feisty wench who currently holds office – our own Navigatin’ Kerry Cooke. Yes, the Blackamoor, Cap’n Devvy Sharkbait, an’ the Hibernian, Guideon the Parrotless, and the tall Florentine, Slashin' Baird Dawkins are circlin’ round our lass.

Ne’er to worry – with the aid of our Cap'n, No-Eyes Ron, of the parfect pompadour an’ the touch of Meissen lace at his wrists, our fearless Navigatin’ Kerry will slash ‘em all – any of ‘em - come the winter seas.

The namin’ of our tribe was done with the help of the Pirate Name Generator, and the log page fer the day is HERE. It ain’t any accident, me hearties, tha the Good Ship Five Percent is so threatened on such a day, but Avast! We’ll bring her home sound yet!

More rum! An’ pass the Black Spot to the one as desairves it least!
