Tomorrow is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. It sneaks up on you every year, doesn't it? Me too. Make this one memorable with an impromptu pirate party this weekend. It's nothing to stress about, yellow-belly! Here's all you need:

• First, get yourself a pirate nickname. And ye can call me Evil Sal, mateys.
• Hmm, if you're hosting a party, you'll need to send out an invitation. Now, where would you go to find a pirate invitation you could send out quickly and easily.... I know! (Hint: Click the image above.)
• Decorate with black pirate flags, gaudy costume jewelry and gold-wrapped chocolate-filled coins.
• Hide a treasure (doubloons, grog or just some bags of Pirate's Booty), and create maps and clues to help guests hunt for it.
• Seafood would be appropriate grub for rowdy pirates, or meat on the bone you can eat with your hands, like wings and chicken drumsticks, while making growly noises. And keep your guests scurvy-free with lots of citrus.
• Talk the talk. "Aye" = yes. "Bilge" = nonsense. "Gangway" = get out of my way. And "arrr," like aloha, can mean a number of things, so use it as much as possible. Arrr!
