How many of you ever remember wanting to be a pirate? Well, now that the Somalis have struck more than once, do you still want to? We all know that the stories of Blackbeard were cool, but this isn't the version the real world struts. Earlier today, the Somali pirates hijacked a Greek ship. That's right. They're at it again. The ship they targeted this time was filled with 35,000 tons of soya. 14 crew members were on board. For those of you who don't know, soya, or soybean, is the most proteinaceous vegetable known to man.
Now imagine 35 thousand tons being stolen from you. Not to mention the fear the 14 members of the crew must've been in. The attack, staged at down, simply hijacked the ship. No crew members were harmed in the strike.
