History overlooks...
The really hip Indians wore their loincloths backwards and held their bows parallel to the ground when holding up some turkey.

Thanks.  I'm glad you got a laugh out of this -- but I was being serious.

Thanks for reading.  Next I'm going to tackle Einstein's theory of relativation.

They never tell it like it is.  It's necessary for journalists like myself to dig a little deeper and get the real dirt.  It's a dirty job, but I'm dirty.

CunningLinguist,

You mean I've been lied to all these years? That history sounds nothing like what I read in grade school.  Oh, give me a mint julep, I feel faint.  "He bought his ticket from a scalper"  LOL.

you should see me do it as performance art.  Mind blowing -- the critics all agree.

;-) thanks for the click.

Sex Rag

me and Russell Crowe... it's just a re-enactment.  I'm sure he didn't go down EXACTLY like that, but from this historian's perspective... um, yep.

Thanks for dropping in.  Gobble gobble
