In this day and age of identity theft and other personal security issues, did any of you know about Iron Mountain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBkJrqV2qkQ), the privatized storage facility(ies) used by the government and other elite of society?
Important documents, banking & social security records, historical records, original recordings of famous or otherwise important film, music, and even photos (http://www.wilhelm-research.com/nppa/NPPA_Corbis_Preservation.pdf) deemed important enough to be secured in this way are all stored here.
It's all locked in vaults inside some old mine/mountain in Pennsylvania, and apparently, also many other similar sites in other parts of the country.
I guess you really can learn something new every day.
On a lighter note, Talk Like A Pirate Day is next week Wednesday, September 19th. Avast me hearties!

Here are some jokes to get you in the spirit . . .
"What's the pirate movie rated? - Arrr!"
"What kind o' socks does a pirate wear? - Arrrrgyle!"
"What's the problem with the way a pirate speaks? - Arrrrticulation!"
