Today be Talk Like a Pirate Day, me hearties, so here be a pirate video: Pirates of the Caribbean Verizon commercial.

The fine captains of Verizon, AT&T, Bellsouth, and other ships o’ the main Internet shipping lanes tell us they be needing special timbers to deliver the goods, like that pirate video, and so all ye land lubbers be able to speak to each other.

Yet some captains of politics, such as Ted Kennedy, say avast! We be already speaking just dandy, and what we be needing is more lanes for all, and faster!

‘Tis a fine day to be speakin’ free, I say!  Arr!
