There's also this endearing piece.

August 16, 1856 Florence, Alabama
The schoolmaster had a tame sparrow and had warned the students not to harm it, threatening death. One of the boys stepped on the bird and killed it; he was afraid to return to school but did so. After lessons, the master took the boy into a private room and strangled him to death. The boy's father went to the school and shot the schoolmaster dead.

Soon after, congress tried to pass a bill restricting the size of the gun powder bag

1856 not 1756.

See? Your gun laws WAI.

In 1960 you didn't hear about everything happening in the world. You also didn't hear about it until the evening news. You also only heard what they could fit into 25 minutes of air time. in 2017 you hear about bad things within minutes of them happening. Sometimes they are streamed to the world as they happen.

Communication and our ability to do it has changed this country and world in ways people don't think about.

John R. Breckinridge, son of the late Robert Jefferson Breckinridge, attending classes in law at Cumberland University in Lebanon Tennessee, was killed by John L. Anderson, the Mayor's son. The latter was reportedly "crazed with liquor."

Sold a quarter of beef to a lesbian today. The only reason I bring that up is because she did.

Don't get me wrong, don't really care what her leanings happen to be, just still trying to figure out how she managed to bring her sexual preference in to the conversation about beef considering I have never met her before and was talking to her on the phone. A little weird, not her being gay, just her thinking that it was information that I needed to complete her order. It was sandwiched in between me explaining that she actually needed to buy the animal live and that I would deliver the animal to the local butcher and asking her if it was a problem for her to pick it up there. She proceeded to tell me she lived in (insert city) and "I'm actually a lesbian". I wanted to say something like "expanding the diet from fish to beef" or "is it going to be weird to have meat in your mouth" but just went with the boring "so.....it isn't a problem for you to pick it up from my butcher"

Is that a normal thing that comes up in a conversation? Would it be cool if I told her that the beef was all natural and I don't use hormones and that I actually like to have sex with my wife on the picnic table? Was I supposed to ask a question there? Was she trolling me to see if I was like one of those bakeries who refused to sell to gay folk? Did she just come out and couldn't wait to tell everyone she talked to?

The lesbians are deadbeats, neither of them have paid for their beef as of yet.

They prefer ham sandwiches over beef

The problem with lesbians is that w/out men, they'd run out of lesbians.

Would probably be better turning that around to gay guys.

Women could sustain for quite a while without men.
