Remember what you put but many of you focused on what historians would call the American Revolutionary era rather than the colonial era writ large. People like george washington, Thomas Jefferson, alexander hamilton, issues like taxation without representation, other founders and historical highlights and the imperial crisis in the war all popped up.

But today i am here to talk about privateering and American Revolution. It was late the day on june 3rd, 1780, when salem captain Jonathan Harrod and his privateer, the pickering, were heading for the friendly port of bilbao, spain. The british achilles, however, stood in the way nobody would have faulted had he fled in the face of this superior foe.

Now, as a fire says one woman was trapped under the cruise Autonomous Car when they arrived, they did have to use, quote, the jaws of life to pull the woman out. Now at this time, firefighters are only saying her condition is serious and that she is currently being treated at sf general hospital. We just heard from a fire captain with the sf fire department.
