Anyone else remember the movie Southern Comfort? Because the North Carolinians chasing camo-clad ICE into the woods during hunting season sure brings it to mind.

I love that Ken Burns got Paul Giamatti to voice John Adams. After his role in the HBO series, I can't imagine anyone else performing Adams.

Ken Burns' Revolutionary War series is on. It reminds me of an important fact I learned from "Dazed and Confused" : Behind every great man was a great woman, man, and for George Washington that woman was Martha Washington, man. She was a hip, HIP lady, man. #HATM

Valid, but why can't readability meters online also include in the calculation distracting popup ads and "sign up for our email newsletter" interstitials that block content when I've only gotten three-quarters of the way through the first sentence?

You know how it says in Genesis, "And God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness." Why was it necessary to separate the light from the darkness? What did it look like?

#HATM My ancestor Daniel Tyler was a Revolutionary War veteran. He was born in Virginia and fought at the Battle of Saratoga as a member of Colonel Daniel Morgan's unit of sharpshooters. I'm guessing since my uncle Glenn was a member of the SAR, I would also qualify.
