Ahoy! It be International Talk Like A Pirate Day! Shiver me timbers!

And what better time be than this to recall the greatest pirate of all time, and the patron saint of all entrepreneurs, Blackbeard.

Ay, Blackbeard. And if ye don't believe he was true an entrepeneur, observe the only records recovered from the Adventure, his fine yet sunken craft:

Such a day, rum all out- Our company somewhat sober- A damned confusion amongst us !- Rogues a-plotting - Great talk of separation- so I looked sharp for a prize- Such a day found one with a great deal of liquor on board, so kept the company hot, damned hot, then things went well again.

Arrr, that be running a startup indeed! Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me...
