    Barbarism of Katyn Forest, 1940

    Glad I am not a liberal from up north. The only people that I hold in contempt are those who wish to enslave me or destroy my way of life. I don't give a flip about their color, race, national origin or religious beliefs. Mess with my freedom and you are on my bad side.

    Barbarism of Katyn Forest, 1940

    "We are still taught that the Gulag labor camps of the Soviet Union in the 20th century were labor camps or prisoner of war camps and not slave camps, even though it was straight up slavery and you were sent there solely because of who they were and not what they did. The current modern day...

    The "Blue Pike" is/was a close cousin to the walleye. Long thought to be extinct do to commercial fishing in the Great Lakes. I did read that they thought that they found a isolated population in a remote lake up in Canada but I have not heard anything about it for years. There may be a few...

    General interest thread

    That has always been a tough one everywhere. Game animals are NOT owned in the U.S. like they are in most other countries. They are a "public natural resource". Since they do not remain solely on public property, they often move on private property, they need to be watched, checked on etc for...

    Got the Original 6 correct, that is a point in your favor. Remember what a "blue pike" is? Pickerel are NOT walleye.

    You are climbing "down" in "cool factor" Better work on that!! You are headed for "The Granholm" level of "sub-cool"!! Most likely call walleye pickerel and still call pickerel, pickerel too. Do you at LEAST remember the "Original 6" ? :D

    Granholm is NOT a "Michigander" By definition she cannot be. She was not born in Michigan. Just a fact. Now, where did she come from? OH YEAH, I remember now!! That great socialist mecca from north of us!!! THAT's right!! Seems like it was by way of the great socialist mecca of California as...

    A "Michiganite" is a metorite that landed in Michigan. A person born and raised in Michigan is a "Michigander" :D

    Grape koolaid it best for those of use who wear Purple!! Purple Power is really "Grape"!! We are truly "raisin" the bar on expedited services!! Truck stops are not required to give teams more, they CHOOSE too. Of course showers are a "right" Being clean is needed to stay healthy and keep the...

    That's socialism for you!! We teams are "entitled" to more than you solo's and you should pay to cover OUR needs!! The trucks stops know their costs, they determine if teams should get extra showers or towels. If it does not work for them they can, and should, change the policy. Then WE decide...

    Some drivers are pigs. Some are not. If you are going to have them they should be kept up. Many are not. I would love to see showers looked at by some independent health safety officials. That would be a real eye opener. If a truck stop wants to charge fee for showers they can and should. They...

    Pilot and showers

    It would not be so bad if they cleaned the showers, kept up the stalls, maintained the water temps, in fact, many of them to very little. It is not hard to find dirt built up in the corners. Mold everywhere. ETC ETC. Customer service is not a primary concern at many of the truck stops out there...

    Barbarism of Katyn Forest, 1940

    Turtle, I was implying, maybe in a clumsy manner, that there is a very good chance that some or all of those bodies did not become part of that show by their own wishes. It would not surprise me in the least that they were murdered in prison, in the "re-education" camps etc.
