Arrrrr, A pint o' grog fer me ol' hearty XavierP!

Tis' just a wee thought from this Linux sprog, for today be Talk Like A Pirate Day so hoist the great, grand jolly roger for the scurvy son of a sea dog, him bein' kind enough to share some of his dubloons with me an' all, that bein' in the form of a gmail invite

So join me me hearties, an' raise a glass to this swashbucklin' Gentleman o' fortune

Ahoy!
