Pirates in FIlm

I lay in a bed unlike my own, to the right of me is some red haired  broad from the previous night.  Not surprised by this encounter since this was a casual way to end the night for a pirate. I throw myself out of the bed and was greeted with a pounding feeling in my head. The rum last night did a number on me. I let the sleeping broad lie in the bed. I get up to find my coat . the co at was on a hanger in the corner of the room. Something was missing in my coat my flintlock pistol, I slowly looked around the room for my iconic pistol.

The pistol was my pride and joy it was like no other norma

Picture this you are sitting on your comfy couch watching a nice game of baseball The braves are up by 1 in the bottom of the 8th inning  and you are wearing your Freddie Freeman jersey for good luck. Suddenly the game cuts to commercial after the inning ends. A commercial for Captain Morgan rum plays and you see this macho manly captain in a nice red coat and a long black beard raise his glass and drink a drink. That man is Captain Henry Morgan one of the most successful pirates and a man who was famous enough in history to have his own Rum.

Based on the image that was placed in your head by the commercial he is seen as a good leader who most likely treated his crew right and as most pirates left no mercy for who they were attacking.Only some of that assumption is true. The man was great leader and completed many raids with small crew

Leo Dicaprio playing Jordan Belfort(Wolf of WallStreet) In today's word take a look in a wallet or a purse, chances are there is a green paper called a bill. Could be one dollar bill, a five dollar bill, or a twenty dollar bill. The point is that this money was not always the green paper in Mr Dicaprio's hands on the image to the left. Back in the the pirate age of the 1500s instead of paper money or the coins we know today they were plundering pieces of eights. Pieces of eight were silver coins counted as eight reals hence the name. This currency was also known as the Spanish dollar. They were granted this name due to the fact they were made in Spain. The currency would leave the coasts of Spain through the hands of Pirates. Through plunders and takeovers the currency would transport. The treasure was known as the one the prizes from the new world. The Currency would flow out of Panama in ports like Nombre De Dios. Sir Francis Drake Great adventurer dead (Uncharted
