I see a new blog theme...

My pirate name is Iron Anne Bonney.

Arrr!

(Yes, I am packing. Shut up.)

My brain first interpreted that "Yes, I am packing" as "yes, I am packing heat". And I furrowed my brow trying to get the joke. (Wouldn't Anne Bonney be "packing cutlass" or something?)

Strange how brains work. Carry on.

Anne Bonney'd be packing both cutlass and heat: pirates often carried several loaded pistols (in her era, that'd be flintlocks) so they could be used rapidly.

I dunno if my pirate name -- "Iron Davy Rackham" -- means I should be swashbuckling at sea or hustling pool...

My pirate name is Captain Bess Flint - love it! I think I'll change my screen name.
