Pirate Trivia Time:
Here are some of my favourite bits of pirate trivia:
Ann Bonny's name has been spelled "Anne" with an e for 300 years due to a error in the trial record.
The sole surviving physical description of Ann Bonny and Mary Read by an eyewitness is basically "I knew they were women because they had big breasts".
Blackbeard once ransomed the city of Charleston for syphilis medication.
There is no known record of Blackbeard killing anyone before his final battle.
The word "buccaneer" has the same origins as the word "barbecue" (the boucan, a means of preparing meat).
A buccaneer, William Dampier, introduced the word "avocado" (among others) to the English language (he was also the first person to circumnavigate the world three times).
Wrecks of at least two pirate ships have been discovered: "Black Sam" Bellamy's Whydah Galley, and Blackbeard's Queen Anne's Revenge.
Arguably the most successful pirate of all time was a Chinese woman, Ching Shih, aka Zheng Yi Sao.
Bartholomew Roberts had perhaps the most cinematic pirate death- trading broadsides with a man of war in the middle of a tropical storm.
Yes, Stede Bonnet actually had a library on his sloop, the Revenge.

Do not ask your children to strive for extraordinary lives. Such striving may seem admirable, but it is the way of foolishness. Help them instead to find the wonder and the marvel of an ordinary life. Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears. Show them how to cry when pets and people die. Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand. And make the ordinary come alive for them. The extraordinary will take care of itself.

Do not ask your children
to strive for extraordinary lives.
Such striving may seem admirable,
but it is the way of foolishness.
Help them instead to find the wonder
and the marvel of an ordinary life.
Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears.
Show them how to cry when pets and people die.
Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand.
And make the ordinary come alive for them.
The extraordinary will take care of itself.

Movie Review ~ Lovely, Dark, and Deep
The lack of urgency in making anything happen in Lovely, Dark, and Deep steals the thunder away from what could have been a heck of a good storm of scares mixed with emotional closure.

US reaffirms commitment to “Taiwan’s self-defence capabilities”
Laura Rosenberg, chair of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT), the US embassy on the island, stated Tuesday that Washington would maintain its “commitment to supporting Taiwan’s self-defence capabilities.”
“The United States reiterates our long-standing commitments to enable Taiwan to maintain a sufficient self-defense capability. As you know, we are seizing upon the full range of tools authorised by Congress, and will continue to do so.”
Rosenberg also highlighted the US commitment to “maintaining a strong unofficial relationship with Taiwan that upholds democratic values, deepens our economic ties, and supports Taiwan’s meaningful participation in the international community.”
We remain committed to our one China policy guided by the Taiwan Relations Act, the three Joint Communiques, and the Six Assurances. For more than 40 years, this framework has enabled the maintenance of peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
Beijing denounced the US delegation’s visit to the island, declaring that “anyone in the international community who violates the one-China principle is interfering in China’s internal affairs and infringing upon China’s sovereignty, and will face the joint opposition of the Chinese people and the international community.”
