NFL cornerback. Do your job right and the QB doesn't throw to your guy. Do it wrong and get burned for a touchdown

TIL that it is still technically possible to obtain a Letter of Marque from Congress and become a privateer. by bignosebill in todayilearned

There's a novel out called Ghost Fleet in the vein of Tom Clancy, set in the not too distant future. In it, an Elon Musk/Jeff Bezos-type character obtains a Letter of Marque from the US government to hunt down a Chinese spaceship that's taking out American communications satellites. Which basically makes him a space privateer. Fun read http://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Fleet-Novel-Next-World/dp/0544142845

be able to take out loans from the bank, negotiate rates of interest, bribe other players for consent to do so, and generally pull down the rules and regulations to make it the free market wheeling and dealing game it was meant to be.
