The Benefits of Being A Pirate

by sk8ordie

This is a persuasive essay I wrote for English. It is about the holiday called "Talk like a Pirate Day." I learned of this holiday from a newspaper article written by Dave Barry of the Miami Herald. It is more of a satire than a parody.

All "information" I got from a newspaper article written by Dave Barry. Dave Barry is a humor columnist for the Miami Herald. His articles appear weekly in newspapers across the country. If you would like to read the article, go to http://www.miamiherald.com and click on Dave Barry.
