Yea sorry about that, I was just going to borrow it and then I got busy and it got misplaced and I just kinda of forgot about it. ::)
Wow what a photo. I knew the mid west suffered but I didnt know it had been that extreme in South Dakota.
Does it surprise you that the demise of many on the “list” is going to be caused by global warming? I guess we will see. Detroit was a shocker, It said its population had decreased by a third since 1950.
Words and music by William Shakespeare Hays(1837-1907)McClellan is the man:The cruel war must have an end;I'll tell you what we'll do;We'll cast our votes for "Little Mac,"We're bound to put him through.The widow's wails and orphan's tears Prevailing o'er the land Pray heaven to send a rare relief--McClellan is the man.CHORUS:Shout! boys, shout! and rally all you can,We'll have another Washington-- McClellan is the man!Corruption sits in places high, And Shoddy rules the roast;"Fight on!" is still Corruption's cry, "More spoils!" is Shoddy's boast.But we, the people, sov'reigns all, Declare our righteous cause;"The Constitution as it is, The Union as it was."CHORUSThis cruel war will never cease Until the South comes back;The only man to do the work Is glorious "Little Mac."Then let us put him in the chair, And he will give us peace;For "Peace in Union" is his sin, And war's alarms will cease. CHORUSLet's heal dissentions and unite, Then, stronger than be-fore,We'll bear our banner through the world, The flag our fathers bore.In many stripes and golden stars Shall give the people ease;And all th'opressed of every clime Will hail our happy peace.CHORUSThe hot-heads South cried "Let's secede," But find it doesn't pay;The hot-heads North cried "Confiscate, And then we'll have our way."But both have failed and always will; There is a better plan:We'll choose a righteous President-- McClellan is the man!CHORUS
I read Grant's Memoirs about 3 years ago at the same time as i read phil Sheridan's. Of the two, I thought grant wrote a clearer account of the war but I really enjoyed Sheridan's account of his time as CoS during the Indian Wars.
I would like to get around to reading Sheridans as well.
Well Finally have my internet up and running at the house. Now no more running around to friends and neighbors begging for some internet time. Much better! As for the house its coming along I did tile for the first time, I was suprised how easy it was. Carpet in a couple weeks some interior doors and moulding and the beast will be finished. I will try and upload some pics later.
