Thank you for all the kind words and have a nice life. Don't forget to read up on Appomattox. The honorable and noble General Lee has surrendered to General Grant. There was a peace treaty and the war is over I do declare. The Southern states are now part of the Union.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appomattox (DAB page, though) Quote:
Was Lee all that good? He had some admirable qualities, but good? Peace treaty? For the CSA it was a war of independence (which I think was their right) though essentially it was to protect slavery (which wasn't). For the US—at least some of the unionists, it was an insurrection. I'm not sure if there was an actual declaration of war, hence no need for a peace treaty. It was also wrong to deny Southern whites the vote—as they were technically US citizens (which means that Falklanders should be able to travel freely to and fro Argentina as well as vote there, I suppose), but it's hard to grieve the short time when newly free blacks took over the state legislatures. It was complicated: something Northwinds is ignorant of or deliberately ignoring—perhaps in order to divide America's political left further. They gave us LBJ and Carter, while the North gave us Reagan, Massachusite Papa Bush, and Trump. |

He sure must be hangry. Never seen a person so hangry before. He must be starving himself up there. Let's also offer him some fried chicken, collard greens with ham hocks, and corn bread. He won't be hangry no more once he gets taste of that good ol' Southern cooking.

If you live in America you cannot escape Rednecks. People often think the worst hicks live somewhere below the Mason-Dixon line, but the upper peninsula of Michigan is hillbilly territory. They really dig Kid Rock and Ted Nugent up there. I grew up among hillbilly/rednecks but in my mid 20's took finally distance to that kind of mindless and narrow minded hateful lifestyle.

This is what it's all about. Feel me? Notice the snow shovel. Video made by Canucks. I'm also planning to move to Canada.
