Annoyed at thread drift

Drifted into election coverage! Wonder how long before they start campaigning for the next one? Seems to be continuous now days.

I got a reprieve.
I was going to wax a couple of the vehicles today, but it's raining.
Oh, well. Guess I'll have more time to annoy you folks.

I bet Squanto's sorry.

Squanto no sorry.
Squanto bring heap big popcorn!

Squanto no sorry.

Actually, Europeans had been coming to America for over 100 years before Squanto met the pilgrims and blew their minds by speaking english.
Even if the Wampanoag Indians slaughtered the pilgrims as they came ashore it would've just delayed the inevitable. Europe sent wave after wave of ships to colonize this land.

That being said, Nihtsi kiyistoi popcorn.

drifting...
boatme99's sig line actually had me looking at historical Squanto stuff.
Previously, I thought the name was just a silly, made up moniker.

Boy, was I wrong:

Tisquantum (January 1, 1585 – November 30, 1622), also known as Squanto, was the Native American who assisted the Pilgrims after their first winter in the New World and was integral to their survival. He was a member of the Patuxet tribe, a tributary of the Wampanoag Confederacy. During his lifetime, he crossed the Atlantic Ocean six times.

I like the images...

...but the popcorn photochop was too good to pass up!

Having grown up midway between the two landing points of the Mayflower, my early history learnin' was heavy on the New England Colonial period.

Fart...oops, did I do that?

 

[boatme99]

Have you ever had to ask that question....

..."Do farts have lumps?"

 

[vonn]

Early American history is very interesting, we got more from the resident Indians than most people would ever guess.

Have you ever had to ask that question....

..."Do farts have lumps?"

Yes! But lumpy farts are correctly termed "shart"

No, but I laugh so hard in this general dyerectione I might.
