The length of time required for such a census would make it irrelevant even before it was completed...so...why? What was the purpose? Voting wasn't exactly an issue...<br /><br />Taxes? or as my husband suggested, was it more along the lines of determining who the possible/probable insurgents were....

If you take the view that life is more or less a qualification course with a stringent evaluation given afterwards for the edification of the participant, then even though from a personal perspective everything seems to have gone to hell in a hand basket, the truth of the matter is something else again.<br /><br />On a humorous note I have been thinking about doing a "Praxis: Pepsi and Coke Plastic Ultra Hydration Bottles: Able to withstand Hydraulic Shock up to 200 psi. Ultra Light Weight. Ultra Low Cost. Ultra Clear. Semi-Bladder Construction. Available in Standard 1, 1.25, 1.5, and 2 liter sizes. Easily modified for nearly unlimited uses: No one available to feed your gold fish when going on maneuvers? No Problem: take them with you in your own Ultra Gold Fish Travel Container. Modify the cap with one-way valves made from plastic tubing and surgical glove fingers. When the bottle flexes as you walk the water will be aerated to keep your finny friends happy and fresh. Don't Have Gold Fish but Do Have a Sense of Humor? Then make your own Power Pump Assault Modular Monster Water Cannon - be King of the Hill with ten liters or more of 200 psi Hydraulic Power! Unexpected mouths show up for dinner? No Problem. Cut the bottoms out of your Water Cannon storage containers to provide feeding bowls for all. **MA (Moron Alert): When cooking do NOT use the Plastic Ultra Hydration Bottles. Use the damn Standard Canteen Cup, moron - or the unlined can the chili came in...** Of course if all else fails and no Ultra or CamelBack bottles are available, steal the baby's bottles - glass or plastic, nipples and all. They work wonderfully and even allow you to take fresh eggs out in the field **MA: take the eggs out of the shell first, ok?<br /><br />And you are up-loading Chapter 32 as we speak, right?<br /><br />Merry Christmas and God Bless;<br /><br />bacsiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-9978824698831359652009-12-24T19:23:25.651-06:002009-12-24T19:23:25.651-06:00The password that night was Victory of Death."...<b>The password that night was Victory of Death."</b><br /><br />In the contest between Liberty and tyranny there is no other choice.<br /><br />Thank you, Mike, an hundred fold, for your past and continuing efforts in support of the reclamation of Liberty<br /><br />Merry Christmas to one and all. <br /><br />"May the Lord make His Face to shine upon you... and give you strength."aughtsixnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-54767237268476003942009-12-24T18:46:58.569-06:002009-12-24T18:46:58.569-06:00"On Christmas day, 1776, Washington's arm..."On Christmas day, 1776, Washington's army had collapsed from 30000 in Brooklyn in September to 2500. Less than 1 out of of every 1000 Americans had the courage to be with Washington on Christmas day. Of that 2500, 1/3 did not have boots. They wrapped their feet in burlap and they left a trail of blood marching the nine miles to Trenton. Washington decided to cross an icy river, at night, in a snowstorm, to march at night, to surprise 800 professional German soldiers. Win a surprise victory, capture all 800, and restablish the legitimacy of the Revolution. Two weeks later he had 15000 volunteers. The password that night was Victory of Death."<br />Video, parts 1-6 http://www.davidhorowitztv.com/restorationweekend/rw2009/280-newtgingrich (If you have issues with Gingrich, put them aside, or skip to part 6)Broadswordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11571770422428875181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-89990214924012559472009-12-24T18:21:16.193-06:002009-12-24T18:21:16.193-06:00Thanks Mike for all you do.

I wanted to drop-off-and-go, but she invited me in for stories and cookies. How do you say no to an 83 year old lady who wants to chat? <br /><br />She told me a story about her Uncle who was a Canadian Army Soldier in both The Great War and in WWII. He was shot cleanly through the shoulder in one trench warfare incident, went back and got slightly mustard gassed. He was on the front for the Christmas Cease Fire. The second war wasn't quite so glamorous when during the Blitz of London, a building fell on him and a bunch of others. Rescue people thought he was dead, and tagged him so, but he moved or made a noise, so they got him to surgery. British doctors took his right leg below the knee and put a plate in his head. That was it for soldiering, but he kept working and wrote some notebooks about the wars.<br /><br />I want to see those notebooks, if they exist. <br /><br />Merry Christmas!pdxr13https://www.blogger.com/profile/04663894695994248670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-5682294371055863342009-12-24T13:47:13.298-06:002009-12-24T13:47:13.298-06:00Thanks, Mike, for carrying the flame, and inspirin...Thanks, Mike, for carrying the flame, and inspiring the rest of us.<br />Have a very Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year, and keep your powder dry!<br />Jim UMSC<br />IIIdrjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647484115197408897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-67030965293241388942009-12-24T12:39:06.876-06:002009-12-24T12:39:06.876-06:00Mike,
