Jeremy's Sametime Status Proudly Presents: If they were Pirates week! "Aye, e'erythin' be funny as long as it be happenin' t' someone else."
Okay...one more shot at this. Captain Michael Fabian?
So close...but not quite. Alas, "If They Were Pirates Week" has come to a close. Hopefully, you had fun with the week's quiz-ish thing. We'll be back next week with more Sametimey Goodness. I've been saving up all week!
Oh goodie.
No, really...there's some good stuff coming up. I promise!
Anyway, yesterday's quote was courtesy of Captain Oliver Hazard Perry talking about the Battle of Lake Erie. See you monday!

Theme Week, Part Avast
Jeremy’s Sametime Status Proudly Presents: If they were Pirates week! "Aye, we be meetin' the enemy and they be our'n"
Ooo! I know this one! It's totally Jack Sparrow.
Yeah, no. The special nature of today's quote is that it was spoken by an actual sailor after a naval battle.
Yesterday's quote was of course originally spoken by Thomas Paine, before it was turned into a Bob Marley song. One more left...see you tomorrow!

Theme Week, Part Ahoy
Jeremy’s Sametime Status Proudly Presents: If they were Pirates week! "The harder th' battle be, th' more glorious th' triumph."
That was Guybrush Threepwood, right?
Yeah, not quite. We'll see who else knows it. There are actually a couple other variations of this same quote floating out there, so it's either more or less difficult.
Yesterday's quote was, of course, the famous phrase originally spoken by René Descartes. See you tomorrow!

Theme Week, Part Gar
Jeremy’s Sametime Status Proudly Presents: If they were Pirates week! "Methinks, tharfore me be, gar"
Awfully introspective for a Pirate. I'm impressed.
Today continues our piratey Theme Week for fun and no prizes. Yesterday's quote was, of course, Alexander Graham Bell's famous first words over a telephone...as spoken if he were a pirate.

Theme Week, Part Arrrr
Jeremy’s Sametime Status Proudly Presents: If they were Pirates week! "Arrr, Mr. Watson, come har, I be needin ya, gar!"
In celebration of International Talk Like A Pirate Day, held yesterday, Jeremy's Sametime Status, in association with Miracle Posting, Inc. is proud to present an entire Theme Week of famous quotes, slightly modified as if they were spoken by pirates. It's gonna be a thing!
It's a game of sorts, too. You get to guess what the original quote really was, in addition to the person who originally said it. No need to respond or send me emails or anything, since it's not a contest, and there are no prizes. If you get it right, you get the satisfaction of knowing you did your best. Today's starts off pretty easy, but in true Theme Week fashion, they get harder as the week goes on. So raise your grog mug, and have some fun with us as we set sail through the slightly modified annals of historical quotes.

We're havin' a heat wave...
Live! From the Frozen Tundra of Jeremy’s Office...
That's why I work from home...I get to control the climate.
You don't work...or have a home for that matter.
Not really the point, now is it?
I suppose not. Anyway, last week, some genius in the ol' Cube Farm here decided that it was too cold. They did what any self-important person would do, and called in a complaint to the facilities team, who promptly came upstairs and set the place to "Broil."
Not long after that, somebody else decided they were too hot, so the called in a complaint to the facilities team, who promptly came upstairs and set the place to "Meat Locker."
This happens startlingly frequently among the people who don't want to just leave crap alone and wear sleeves to work. So today, we're left with a workplace that resembles the northern coast of Alaska. We'll see what happens monday, when there will be palm trees growing on my chair.

He's weird
Who is Luke and why did he never heat his water properly?
It's a little selfish that he gets the mildly warm water all to himself. Maybe it was just named after him.
So not long ago, it was laundry night in the Jeremy household. One of my articles of laundry said to wash by hand in Lukewarm water. Knowing full well what this meant, I started to amuse myself thinking about who Luke was and what he was doing when he invented his own temperature of water.
I think he was one of the Dukes of Hazzard.
Nono...different Luke. Pretty sure this one was Darth Vader's son.
The guy from 90210?
That's him! Anyway...that's all I have in the way of stupid jokes today. Happy Thursday!
