We owe you all that at the very least.<br /><br />I like that the Revolutionary war privateers were sometimes called “Gentlemen Sailors” or “Gentlemen Volunteers”.

You can also use that as a tie in to the 11-11-11 "National Metal Day" thing with the Metallica song and the "Black album" logo inspired by this flag...<br /><br />just saying.Timmy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/09902641426229272672noreply@blogger.com
