Arrrrrg!

 Aarrrrg!  Today is Talk Like a Pirate Day and that is the only word I know in Pirate.  Happily, Talk Like a Pirate Day is one of my son's favorite days so it added to the celebration.  Today we celebrated my son's 50th and my son-in-law's 49th birthdays (not the same days, we found a day in between) with a family dinner at my place.  Our family conversations always cover a wide range of topics, but they have certainly varied over the years.  Today we talked about the two cousins who are away at college, how my daughter sprained her wrist trying to resuscitate a patient who coded during surgery (the patient did survive), which animal has the strongest teeth in the world, how the new cat is doing and how she got the notch in her ear and more.  My daughter-in-law is still teaching double classes with some students still learning from home and my son-in-law shared some really groan worthy or is that aaarrg worthy riddles like "Why don't you ever see elephants hiding in trees?" It was a fun evening, everyone has gone home now, the dishes are in the dishwasher, and I'm going to bed.  But first I'll leave you with one more riddle.  "What do you call a boomerang that never comes back?'
