Sept. 19th mind blowing random thought of the day: The skull and crossbones flag at the top of a pirate ship is called a “Jolly Roger,” and although the origin of the name has been lost, one theory stems from the use of red flags. Centuries ago, a red flag was commonly used during naval warfare to signal that no mercy would be given, and anyone captured would be killed immediately. Called a ‘Joli Rogue’ by the French, it is suggested this was then translated into English as “Jolly Roger.” Another theory suggests, however, that Jolly Roger derived from “Old Roger,” a term used for the Devil.
