Had to look that one up.

I would've had to side with the Union in that conflict.

Is Sherman still popular in your parts?

Shit, I had to look that up Cracker. The way MS has come out with his guns a blazin', kinda fits the bill. Leading the southern calvary and all...



I do like a man with facial hair (generally prefer them alive, but you can't have everything)!

I like facial hair on a man too! Rawr!

He really did offer to trim my bush, very enthusiastically.

Anyway, how's the wife and kids, Mr. Conservative Right?!

Sorry about your bush remaining untrimmed.

Wife and kids are great. I'm no Don Draper, though I talk some shit on the Internetz.

Speaking of golf, I've got to get out. Courses are in wonderful shape this spring!

The area where I live is surrounded by battlefields. Kennesaw Mountain, Pickett's Mill, Hell Hole at New Hope Church. It was the great last stand for the Confederacy and the Union took huge losses. They almost stopped Sherman on his March to the Sea. It was the first time they dug entrenchments, the beginning of trench warfare.

They say you can still hear the battle when it storms in New Hope: http://themoonlitroad.com/hell-hole/

You know, HotD, you always present your 'takes' so thoughtfully, and respectfully, that nobody could ever hold a grudge with you.

I've never been to San Francisco, but have been to SoCal many times. My dad and I are going to take my son to Frisco in the next two or three years on Amtrak's California Zephyr.

Leave Chicago, cross the Rockies and cruise into town. Hope to see a Giants game there. Then we'll take the Amtrak north to Seattle and on to MSP.

You might be amazed!

I've never done a ragequit nor caused one in RL or on the internet. Sometimes it's best to walk away for a time and let things cool off, but don't close doors completely. I can definitely get under one's skin when they keep scratchin' up my backside unduly. I don't have a "dive" button, stay in the ring.

Okay Forrest (Gump, just for clarity), Jenny's gotta do some work. Bring me a box of chocolates next time, would ya? I like surprises, "you neva know whatchya gonna get".

Gahhhhhhh!!! You said Frisco! If you say that to anyone who actually lives anywhere near San Francisco, they'll immediately identify you as the country bumpkin you are. Dead giveaway.

Speaking of pedigree's, you know who's never gotten their due from the American Public in terms of appreciation??

Neal Schon.

Courted in the early 70's by both Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton to join their bands, the dude can flat out shred. Go listen to some of the solos on Journey's tracks and tell me Neal can't play.

Now, as for his desire to be with that Whackjob from Real Housewives of D.C., that's another story.

You are a chick. You need some male friends before your balls go too soft.

I can't talk to THEM about that shit. Why do you think I'm here? Getting my fix, and then I can go back and talk sports.

Tonight, we're going to dissect who the Vikings should take with the 3^rd overall pick in the NFL draft this week.

Also, gonna watch the Twinks and Red Sox.

Then, we'll probably talk about boobs and hot chicks.

They don't know shit about Real Housewives. Got it?

You're educated, but willing to assign blame to people like me (hard-working, family oriented, sick of minorities being integrated into my state, city, neighborhood) for lazy, Section 8, welfare, criminal types not reaching their potential, and thereby, ruining what was once a great country.

Keep up your LeftCoast speak. As long as they're not living among you it's easier to keep spewing your nonsense.

It's so funny. I noticed the California element of Mock didn't have one comment to make about the problems that the 'Trayvon' neighborhood was having prior to the shooting.

Multiple break-ins, all by black men. It was decided a Neighborhood Watch was needed to help prevent this.

Liberals aren't interested in THOSE facts. They want to persecute Whitey (in this case a White Hispanic... Laughable) when he's doing wrong to the poor black kids.

Give me a fucking break.

Have you been snorting the manure again, MS?

The disintegration of the country is occurring because of people's viewpoints? That's just stoopid--I thought it was the illegals, welfare recipients and hoodlums that were causing the problem along with an unhealthy lack of personal responsibility etc.

And where did Donovan assign blame to hardworking people? Huh? Way to put words into someone's mouth.

"As long as they're not living among you...". WTF are you talking about? Sitting in the middle of the country, you think California isn't diverse?

Sure, Trayvon's area was infested with crime (let's just say), ergo it's completely reasonable that a regular citizen should chase down an unarmed kid and potentially confront him. That's ridiculous. Yes, blacks commit more crimes (in my area it's the Hispanics) but when you start painting a whole race with the same brush, that's when you go over in to bigot land. This may come as a shock, but there are poor, hardworking, minorities that are here legally. I'm always somewhat amused that it's the Hispanics sitting outside Home Depot hoping for work while the white guy stands on a street corner with a sign "anything will help".

And as for this Californian, the only time I questionned Zimmerman's thoughts was when it was briefly reported he might have said "fucking coons" and I've never looked at this as a white/black thing because, duh, the guy is Hispanic. But news flash...do you think Hispanics can't be racist against blacks? Or against whites for that matter? Racist goes in all different directions.

I'd love to know how you would solve the issues of crime, welfare abuse, poverty, gangs etc. A little ethnic cleansing might help fix things. Anyway, since you seem to think we West coasters all think alike and it's wrong-thinking, please share your plan to stop the disintegration of the country.

Thanks.
