Quick Hit

Sorry to be so long, but I've working many hours.

The Somalian Pirates finally showed a chink in their armor. After making scores of many great boat jackings netting millions of dollars in profits they finally showed just how poor the Somali education system is. They take an American cargo ship, and instead of going the tested and true path of holding ship and cargo until ransom is delivered, they take the ships captain to hold for ransom instead. Are they mad? And by mad I mean crazy. We all know their mad, they are taking ships for ransom. There has to be some kind of ax to grind there. Don't they know a company will gladly hand over the cash for their cargo far sooner than for a human life.

  1. What is worse....Obama is talking about giving Somalia money to prevent pirates from attacking US ships....right like that will happen.
