PAUL SCHRAG: MEAN GAME OF SCRABBLE >>>

After writing an entire edition of the Weekly Volcano in pirate speak, the notion of playing Scrabble in a room full of people talking like Davey Jones sort of makes me ill. But everyone else should be prepared for a wonderful time as King’s Books presents the Talk Like a Pirate Day Edition of Scrabble Rousers Saturday night.

All proceeds from the event benefit the Tacoma Community House Student Scholarship Fund, which assists students as they transfer from TCH to community college.

Yarg.

[King’ Books, Saturday, Sept. 19, 6:30-8:30 p.m., $10, 218 St. Helens Ave., 253.272.8801]
