Wasn't there another one called Mary Read? Both of them used to sleep with John Rackham, I remember.erolyn wrote: Black Anne Bonney
Like anyone confronted with the harshness of robbery on the high seas, you can be pessimistic at times. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!
There actually WAS a chick pirate named Anne Bonney...and she kicked ass. And I mean LOTS of ass...
Yeah, Mary Reid. I dunno about John Rackham, but I know Anne Bonney slept with a guy named Calico Jack a hell of a lot. My friend and I decided to call ourselves Anne and Mary all the time and are currently hunting for a Calico Jack. No luck yet, though.William Wallace wrote:Wasn't there another one called Mary Read?

John Rackham's nickname was Calico jack because he wore calico britches.erolyn wrote:Yeah, Mary Reid.

Thanks for the offer, but I doubt that either of us can afford trans-continental airfare right now...William Wallace wrote:John Rackham's nickname was Calico jack because he wore calico britches.erolyn wrote:Yeah, Mary Reid.

As for YOUR calico jack, tell your friend to take British Airways to scotland, and go to the Royal Crown Pub. I'll be sitting on a bench, waiting for you.
Yeah, I suppose. He has a wife and childs though.erolyn wrote:Thanks for the offer, but I doubt that either of us can afford trans-continental airfare right now...William Wallace wrote:John Rackham's nickname was Calico jack because he wore calico britches.erolyn wrote:

And if we DID go to Scotland to look for a Calico Jack, we'd probably take a ship, so it'd be more pirate-y. And more fun. Or we'd just kidnap Johnny Depp.
Not wife. Girlfriend. They're not married. And we're not REALLY going to. He's probably too old to be Calico Jack anyway.William Wallace wrote:Yeah, I suppose.

Yeah. I mean, he's what, 42 now?erolyn wrote:Not wife. Girlfriend. They're not married. And we're not REALLY going to. He's probably too old to be Calico Jack anyway.William Wallace wrote:Yeah, I suppose. He has a wife and childs though.erolyn wrote:

Yeah...we need a Calico Jack with a little more youthfulness. Like, 18-25 would be around a good age.William Wallace wrote:Yeah. I mean, he's what, 42 now?erolyn wrote:Not wife. Girlfriend.
