I'm just curious - what does the friends function do for us? I don't get it. Is it just a warm fuzzies thing? (Seriously, I'm genuinely curious.)

The situation in Somalia is not unlike that in the Caribbean in the second half of the seventeenth century. As most of you know, piracy in the Caribbean had swelled to the point that the European governments effectively threw up their hands and adopted a policy of “if-you-can’t-beat-’em-join-’em.” Pirates were designated “privateers” when they bought or were otherwise granted a “letter of marque and reprisal” by their own governments. These were essentially licenses to prey upon the ships of nations with whom the issuing nation was at war, which, often as not in those days, was just about everybody. Somalia is similarly unable to stop the pirates, NATO help notwithstand…

Well met, I'm the one called Hellfire Hannah. I was given my name by a fellow pirate at the Minnesota Renaisance Festival last year & I've kept it because I think it fits. I actually stumbled across this place quite by accident and I'm thinking I might just stay awhile and make new friends. I happened to notice a few familiar names and faces from www.renaissancefestival.com and I'm pleasantly surprised. With that being said I hope I can use this site for fun and maybe some learning and character development ideas as well. Hellfire Hannah

I been sick! Sick in bed, and not in any fun way! Happened right after the first snow of the season in these parts...which must mean I'm becoming allergic to The Evil (I rarely use the vile S--W word itself). But as someone in a movie somewhere once said, "I'm getting better..." What made it worse was that anytime I asked a doctor about leeches or fleams, they would just give me strange looks. I tell ye, mateys, medical science these days do not fill my wi' confidence...
