TODAY UPDATE

I just went to where they put on your makeup, and when the makeup guy was done, he said to the hair guy, "Do you want to do anything to his hair?"
And the hair guy said, quote, "I'll try."

I'm now supposed to be on at 9:45 (a.m.) (I assume). My hair has chemicals in it.

[Pirate Caroline the Fashionably Late]

Arrrrrr, Dave, did you blast the scurvy dog with a witherin' look?

[padraig (aka Pirate Dick the Staggering Drunk)]

Be sure to flip your newly bouncy hair when one of the hosts makes a funny, Dave.

You may have to practice backstage.

(first?)

[padraig (aka Pirate Dick the Staggering Drunk)]

Dang, I mean, currrse yer dog mothered hide, Carrrrroline!

[Cap'n Brett Roughknuckles]

Remember to prominently mention the title of the new book ("History of the Milleniun [So Faaarrrr]) to Count Plunder (Al Roker).

[Meanie the Bluebeard, Pirate Bureaucrat]

I hope that's rum in yer hairrrrrrrrr.

[Grace O'Malley, Irish Pirate Queen]

Don't nap, Dave. Hair guy has hair envy. Fall asleep and he'll swipe your fine locks and sell them to Phil Spector.

[Cheesewiz]

I thought it was talk like a hair stylist day?

[Cheryl (of the plunderin' Cheryls)]

Bloggin' while strumpetin'.

Cap'n Dave is a pirate to be reckoned with.

[Grace O'Malley, Irish Pirate Queen]

Guh, Cheese - no - it's Bring Your Pirate to Work Day. Matey and nonesuch.

[SW]

In Calif, the Today Show doesn't even start til 7am. I'll have to settle for watching Dave hawk his line of CZ jewelry on QVC.

[ellie]

Well Dave, look at it this way, at least the makeup guy didn't say it!

[Grace O'Malley, Irish Pirate Queen]

*respectfully awaitin' Cap'n Dave's next book - 'Chicken Slop for the Bloggers' Soul.'

[Grace O'Malley, Irish Pirate Queen]

Cap'n Dave - pssst - booger in nostril aisle #2. I repeat - booger in nostril aisle #2.

[syphilitic jude sparrow]

as jack bauerrrrr would say, "There be not time for ye fancy perrrrms and lotions, just run yer filthy scabby comb through it and let's go. My public cares not a wooden doubloon for yer fripperies! Now where be my puffy shirt?"

[Cheryl (of the plunderin' Cheryls)]

BLUE SHIRT alert!

[Cheryl (of the plunderin' Cheryls)]

non-puffy variety.

[Cap'n Helga Beerbong]

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I be worrrrrrrrrrkin' now and no tv arrrrrrrround!

How's the hairrrrrrrrrr look??

[Meanie the Bluebeard, Pirate Bureaucrat]

Salute to our first Pirate President!

... actually, maybe not the first.

[Cheryl (of the plunderin' Cheryls)]

The hair reflects the fine efforts of the Today staff. Lover-ly.

Not to be kissin' up to the Cap'n -- but does he get younger looking every freakin' year? Does he have a portrait in the attic or something?

[Susan]

The Carolinas!!!!! Woooooooo!!!!!!

[Susan]

But would "Toilet Supremacy" BAGNFARB?

[Jeff Meyerson aka Cap'n Jack Rackham]

Nice blue shirt Dave, and superb use of the telestrator (™).

Also, excellent job of not letting Al Roker get a word in.

[Cap'n Steve of the Ship 24]

Arrrr! Brilliant! Dave could have re-enacted the Puffy Shirt episode! He would have looked like a pirate on the very day he should look like one!

Arrrr!

[Jeff Meyerson aka Cap'n Jack Rackham]

Yes, the hair looked lovely - smooth but not quite flyaway. And yes Susan, nice Carolinas reference there.

And he even got an "ARRR" in.

[marina_like_a_boatdock]

DAVEBOY!!! You did so well and you and your hair looked very nice. I was so happy to see you, did you hear me clapping at the end? all by myself in the living room like a dummy.

Well if you can't get to Atlanta G-A then the Today show is the next best thing.

HAVE A GREAT DAY you all, at least the heat wave is over, love, grammaw marina

[Susan]

I LOVED the use of the telestrator.

And Dave, you looked just fine. No hair problem that I could see.

[SW]

Is it over already?

[C'apn Ronnie Dullblade]

SW he got all of 30 seconds.

marina - I'm there too and yeah, the weather is glorious!

[Layzeeboy]

I just saw on TV that Dave wrote a book. Shiver me timbers.

[Cap'n Helga Beerbong]

I'm sure he looked lovely.

[crossgirl the fair princess pirate wench]

dave wrote a book?

*quietly chuckling (in a pirate kinda way of course) at the thought of dave, when confronted by the stylist guys comment, immediately thinking, i have got to tell the blog about this!*

[Cheryl (of the plunderin' Cheryls)]

ARRRR! I just realized that Barrrrry Manilow is doing his New York publicity tour today, as well.

Hopefully those ships won't sail into the same waters. I fear trouble a-brewin'.

[daisymae]

dave...did you blog before or after you were on the air?

[Bethie]

Dang! I missed getting to see if the hairstylist succeeded or not!

[Layzeeboy]

*aims cannons at BM strumpeting ship*

[marina_like_a_boatdock]

Cap Ronnie, YES the blue sky this morning with cool temp is so perfectly fantastic! AAAARRRRRen't we fortunate to be in the finest location there is!

[Lou Bricant]

ARRRRRRG!

That is all.

[J R Leech]

From what I learned on a tour of their current
building, and from various archives: One of the original
donors to build Trinity Church Wall Street [their
first, not 2nd or 3rd, building] was Captain
Kidd! They used his block and tackle to erect the
steeple.....

[J R Leech]

p.s.

make that arrrrrchives...

[slyeyes]

heh, heh JR Leech said "erect"

The interview just aired in the CDT. And one of our own bloglits (SteveW???) came up with "yes, the United States" for the bumper sticker, right?

YAY, it got a mention!

[Jennifer]

I was hoping for an "ARRRRRR"....and Dave did not disappoint! I was sold on the toilet supremacy: where can I get a bumper sticker?

[Horse Hung Harry]

ARRRRRRRR!!!

How close to the wind can ye steer, mateys?

The pipetad pirated my prior post ...

[SW]

No, sly, the "yes, of the US" was not my baby, tho I'd be proud to have come up with it.

[Meanie the Bluebeard, Pirate Bureaucrat]

Dad-O-Lot was the bumper sticker creator.

[Decrepit Eve Read (gjd)]

When will we be knowin' if this can viewed online? We haven't a t.v. to be viewin'.

[Pirate Burt the Off-White (aka WriterDude)]

Ted, ye be on the spot now. Folks be wantin' the video on YouTube in a huRRRRRRRRRRy...

[Renee (the First to Walk the Plank)]

Cherrrrryl, Barrrry is afraid of tiny pregnant blonde women. I don't see the scurvy dog posin' much of a threat!
