I didn’t know Henry Morgan was that old. He was on Dragnet and Mash right?

DRAT! Too bad it's not 'Talk Like A Pirate Day'!

I saw a number of old cannon in the ocean at the mouth of the Chagras, from the top of Fort San Lorenzo, but I thought they were from the fort. There were lots of stories of big sharks hanging around the mouth of the river, but I never saw any.

Used to love the curmudgeonly Henry Morgan on the old “I’ve Got a Secret.”

Morgan the Pirate in action. He looked oddly herculean.

I was at the 1624 ship Vasa in Sweden just this weekend:

An awesome experience.

Was it from a fierce battle or a huge hurricane?
