Happy "Mutiny on the 'Bounty' " Day!

On this date in 1790, Fletcher Christian and nine fellow mutineers burned the ship they had seized from the notorious William Bligh.

So – go ahead – celebrate the day the way it should be celebrated – tell your boss what you really think of her! :smiley:

And then we can spend the next 2 centuries practicing a tradition of sexual abuse of girls as young as 7 on the Pitcairn Islands.

Worth reading up on this, interesting and horrible legacy of the most famous of mutinies.

Coincidence??? I think not…

Is there a nautical theme going on today?

Must be, since I’m a fan of all Bountiana and all other things nautical. And I’m trying not to be outbid on a flat pocket compass at eBay…
