I worked at a gas station in high school and college (80's) and would have done this in a heartbeat if I thought I wouldn’t have gotten fired. Instead we stood next to the offending smoker and making exploding noises and yell across the lot to each other “where exactly do we keep the fire extinguisher” or “I hope the…

Join me on the lynx for some golf?

My mom always said two wrights make an airplane.

I hope someone else has pointed this out but the 1873 Colfax Massacre took place in Louisiana, not Virginia. It is marked but what is the most honest Reconstruction Era memorial in America. For some reason I can’t post an image of it, but it reads,

The state government wants to tax us to death. The federal government is corrupt and power hungry and wants to put us in FEMA camps and take…

Are you kidding me?

Does anyone here watch Midsommer Murders? GoT has nothing on that staid British mystery series on portraying incest.

No it’s a stupid nickname. No one knows what it means. Nicknames should resonant or describe something or someone. “Mobtown” for Baltimore still works 150+ years later. Beantown for Boston says something about the culinary heritage of that town. You may not know why Connecticut is called the Nutmeg State, but a…

Sure it does. And the Swastika predates Nazis by quite a bit. Both symbols were coopted by later movements. The Crossland Arms were adopted as the standard for Marylanders who fought under Lee as part of the Army of Northern Virginia and later added to the Calvert colors (black and gold) to form the Maryland state…
