I tried to show that, for the times, it was actually a model of benignity.

    That said, pfft, the Dakotas were a hard place, but there weren't people constantly trying to kill you. Heck, of the places my ancestors homesteaded, the Dakotas were about the tamest.

    BTW, it's not only the PC folks who whitewash history or people wouldn't be so unfamiliar with the realities of even recent society. Sadly, I can't even tell what you got so offended by. Hopefully it wasn't anything I posted.
    I was not offended by anything you posted Tony. Actually, not much offends me, rather just tired of people trying to make much out of nothing when it comes to race, gender, etc. Lots of ignorance out there and those that want some unwarranted power or free stuff to make themselves feel better. Instead they need to put their energies into actually improving something that is real or making their own lives better. Simply put go out there and earn it.

    Maybe Costner is his Postman.
    The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

    Fun fact:

    When the GSMB went to Ireland last year, we went on a tour of the Guinness factory. Before it started we had an impromptu "concert" wherein we played In Heaven, and some of us replaced "beer" with "Guinness".

    In heaven there is no Guinness...
    I'm coo-coo for Coco's puffs!

    Do not speak of that of about which we talk of not speaking... about.

    I'm thinking that with a little obvious wordsmithing, "Whioux Made Whioux" could be appropriate for a new school song.


    "……………….
    How'd it feel when we turned the screw
    Kick you round the world
    There ain't a thing that we can't do
    Do to you, yeah

    Whioux made whioux, Herd smokes you
    You no longer nobody
    Ain't nobody told you?
    Whioux made whioux, Herd buries you
    If you can't fix it, we'll fix you
    You pass on the bill and it reeks of pioux
    But pioux made you and
    Herd turned the screw!"
