History ''Fancy'' was initially a 46-gun privateer named ''Charles II'' – after Charles II of Spain – in Spanish service, commanded by a Captain Gibson, and was anchored at A Coruña, Spain. On 7 May 1694, Henry Every and a few other conspirators organised and carried out a successful mutiny and, setting Captain Gibson ashore, left A Coruña for the Cape of Good Hope. At this time, ''Charles II'' was renamed ''Fancy''. Upon arriving at the Cape, Every sailed to the island of Johanna (Anjouan) in the Comoros Islands, where he had ''Fancy'' careened – removing barnacles and weed from the section of the hull that was permanently below water, increasing her speed. He also had ''Fancy'' razeed, intentionally removing parts of the ship's superstructure in order to increase her speed. Following this work, ''Fancy'' became one of the fastest ships active in the Indian Ocean, an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fancy Ray
Fancy Ray McCloney is a stand-up comedian and advertising pitchman from Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is known for his flamboyant comic persona, once described as "gleefully narcissistic," blending elements of Little Richard, Muhammad Ali, James Brown, Prince, and a tent-revival preacher.

In 2020, he released the career-retrospective stand-up album ''The Best Lookin' Man in Comedy'' on Stand Up! Records. Writer/producer Diablo Cody, who wrote the liner notes for the ...
