I like the Pirates of the Caribbean story - especially with Johnny Depp, but yeah I have a hard time seeing past the plundering and killing.Mary E Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13119298615414367828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8058491976273878048.post-59295611091075792202009-11-17T07:58:11.979-06:002009-11-17T07:58:11.979-06:00Macie- I considered addressing the modern day coun...Macie- I considered addressing the modern day counterpart but you're right. Much less cool!<br /><br />Gary-Interesting fellow, wasn't he? Everything I've read about him makes me think he was awfully sure of himself...elitist even as a child. No one knows about his fathering a child at such a young age, of course, but I certainly wouldn't put it past him. Interesting idea, that a bloodline might have survived...hmm. Great idea for a novel!Trisha Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00356610648183348015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8058491976273878048.post-74301584502612867952009-11-16T10:30:14.988-06:002009-11-16T10:30:14.988-06:00Arrrr Matey!

The old school pirates do seem glamourous, but it doesn't take long to realize that the Somali pirates just aren't cool! ;)Maciehttp://www.maciesmith.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8058491976273878048.post-83524811086242699162009-11-14T21:21:35.078-06:002009-11-14T21:21:35.078-06:00The bit about college rather struck me too.

A lot of people think of him as being a late bloomer, but he was actually precocious. In his own day people wondered if he might be the father of Brutus, which would have required him to be having an affair when he was <i>twelve</i>. Whether he was or not is almost irrelevant compared to the fact people thought it possible of him.Gary Corbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14759372069119740227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8058491976273878048.post-83494862779773024032009-11-13T22:40:23.287-06:002009-11-13T22:40:23.287-06:00Wow!

So few people know the story of Julius Caesar and the pirates- I'm impressed! <br /><br />And I just about died laughing about the piracy being like college part.
