The story of the Boston Tea party is infamous. Here is a short take on the events. In an attempt to keep the British East India company from going out of business the British government forced colonists to purchase their tea. In May 1773, the British parliament passed the Tea Act. The Tea Act allowed the British East India Company to sell tea directly to the colonists, bypassing the colonial wholesale merchants. This helped to lower their cost and sell below other vendors and thus creating a monolpy.The colonists soon revolted and one evening in December boarded three British ships, the Beaver, the Eleanor and the Dartmouth, and dumped forty-five tons of tea into the Boston Harbor.

The other day we were at my daughters talent show that was put on her by her school that was open to all students. It was great to see all the different students showing off their talents from dancing to singing to playing the piano. The one thing that I have always wanted to do was to play the piano. I can punch out a few chords for Star Wars, Chopsticks, and others. But to be able to actually play chords and arrangements would be great. One day I will commit my self to taking lessons and then show off my new talents.
