One of the better things today is this exchange between Freepers and assorted rascally pirates. Thanks to Springheel Jack, for posting this. Sort of takes one's mind off of the winter up here in Great Lakes country. A bit of the freebooter in most of us, I suppose.
I had read Conan Doyle's, Rodney Stone over fifty years ago..... "My trade of blacksmith" says the pugilist, "keeps me in regular training, so to speak". (How's that for memory?) I will have to read Donn Byrne's book. I know he is a much neglected author.
