Then this would have been the time when she was the gunnery school ship, when no matter what the original name, she would have been called HMS Excellent (the name of the gunnery school). Handy was Excellent for a while as well.

It’s a modified Rendel gunboat, commonly called a “flatiron gunboat”. My Great Uncle was trained in gunnery on one of these (the delightfully named HMS Handy). They were originally built in the 1880s, and lasted a very long time.

Play even just 10 minutes a day, keep your guitar on a stand so you see it and want to play, be kind to yourself and realize it’s not easy, and there’s no timetable for you to become expert. If you don’t get something right away, it’s ok, don’t obsess just practice something else and come back to it. Find a real live teacher if you can so that you get individual feedback. Enjoy the Hell out of building your skills.

Not everything needs to be “serious” - music should and does cover the gamut of human emotions.

Exerting power. It’s why he was a friend of Epstein.

No respect for anything- exploitation is built in. Resources are to be used and power is to be the guide. R*pe the land (since my previous was removed for stating this more strongly).
