Tomorrow is Talk Like A Pirate Day. We're watching Elizabeth: The Golden Age, in which Raleigh is technically a pirate, since the Spanish ambassador complains about him attacking one of their ships before war breaks out. Later he get to set the Armada on fire and do some Douglas-Fairbanks-esque swinging from one deck to another.

I love that little sketch they make the Spanish envoys watch in the first movie, just to annoy them, with the guys dressed as ships: "Spanish! Money!" ; "English pirate!"

Yeah, that was kind of Pythonesque.

"Bwa ha ha! I taunt you, Spain!"
