Little Known History

Sometimes we need to re-write history for the fun of it.

 

 
I heard it said so it must be true
about William Penn and so I’ll tell you.
His father’s sisters were nice ladies
but their business was often shady.
 
They hired these fellows who rode in ships
and committed crimes up to their hips,
stopping every ship that sailed the seas
unloading their cargo with great ease.
 
They became famous both far and wide.
Their business and ethics would collide.
When they were nabbed there was a great dance
for they had the Pirates of Penn’s Aunts.

Larry,

I love that last play on words. I don't know if any of that is history or not, but sure sounds good!
