There still be pirates a-sea!
On September 21 there will be a lecture given at the Maine Chowder House in Belfast, Maine, entitled “Piracy: What every mariner should know.” This isn’t about music pirates like the ones New York is trying to put the crackdown on. No, we’re talking about actual sea-faring pirates who still plague mariners! The lecture is being given by Frank Wiswall, a law professor from Cambridge College who is also the chairman of the Joint International Working Group on Piracy and Maritime Criminal Acts in London.
Now this is a lawyer who’s putting his law degree to good work! Not only does he get to talk about pirates, but since he’s giving his lecture at the Main Chowder House, one must assume that he’ll get himself some free chowder. I wish I could get free chowder just for doing my legal-related work. Where’s the “free chowder for blawgers” program?!
