Will Harriet Tubman be on the next $20 bill?

[RjThoughts]

Nah. Hamilton was the first Treasury Secretary (and Washington's de facto prime minister), he set up the fiscal and financial and economic policies of the early USG; he deserves to have his face on a bill. Jackson, who destroyed the Second Bank of the United States, does not.

Using that logic, Robert Morris, the man generally credited with funding most of the Revolution, should be on the $10.

This all goes to show how much there is lacking in the teaching of American History, when I put out Sequoyah and everyone's like, "Who the fuck is that?"

and how many ten dollar bills do you get from welfare?

Jenny is yet more evidence of the failure of some public schools. Or is "she" just THAT stupid?

Not gonna lie. Had to spend some quality google time there.

Also not entirely sure how this is better than Cinco de Mayo when it comes to cultural awareness.

Epic failure in the US educational system when more people believe Cinco de Mayo is Mexican Independence day than know which nation Sequoyah belonged to, let alone what he did.

I stand by my it's an excuse to celebrate Mexicans. If America decided to celebrate Juneteenth I would probably celebrate. To Zoomie's defense if it was national red kool-ade and watermelon day I might be mildly pissed but it would still be a step up.

I'm not surprised White America hasn't, since there's no alcohol consumption attached to it!

 

[Sean Renaud]

I'm quite sure there was drinking involved in reality. If that is what black people need to do get elevated to the level of the Irish I'm down and invite you. . .but even the most ignorant American knows that American Indians/Native Americans (nobody ever accused me of being culturally aware) weren't one people. We can discuss African Americans another day since it's kinda a different story.

Tha fuck is wrong with Kool-aid and watermelon?

Better than drinking from the fuckin' hose...tasting all plasticy...and a perfect dessert for some fish n' grits....or a crawfish boil...

*Slightly shocked about what I just typed....post it anyhow!!"

Maybe 10 years in the dirty dirt had a bigger impact that I thought...

Do I tell you often enough that I love you?

For the record never eaten a crawfish, just seen one hiking during training and thought. . .hmm fresh water lobster.

Fresh water? You do know they are called "mudbugs" for a reason?

As opposed to salt water or am I mistaken and they aren't suffiiciently upstream that they aren't critters that forgot this isn't the ocean?

Most of the water where they're harvested is bayou water, though classified as "fresh" isn't that clean.

Oh, nothing really, it's just that a full-bodied Kool-Aid tends rather to overwhelm the subtle nuances of the watermelon's flavor. Hawaiian Punch is a better pairing; I recommend a nice 2011.

I believe the term is "brakish" (or some spelling therof) and bull sharks rock that shit like a boss. But I thought crawfish were more upstream than that. Could easily be wrong.

I have relatives in Louisiana. I accompanied them once, ONCE, on a harvest. Never again. Add to it I don't eat ANYTHING that comes from the water - seafood and fresh water bass, trout, salmon, etc. It's all EWWW tasting to me.

Yea but I won't stop you from re-enforcing it

Oh for shame...if you're ever in the dirty south and have a chance to elbow up to a newspaper wrapped table piled up with mud bugs it's certainly a unique dining experience worth giving a try.

Oh you don't make it at full strength that's how you get yelled at.....wasting all that kool-aid will land you drinking from the hose

But yea Hawaiian Punch is where it's at...that's the nice shit you break out when you have friends over

I like blended drinks: Cherry and Strawberry Hi-C were great back in the day

If I'm ever in the South (again) I'm just going to encourage noodling. And hope there are Well's Catfish in the area.

Brackish (close enough to know what you mean) is the correct term.

Crawfish, as far as I know are true freshwater arthropod and actually bull sharks can roll full fresh water for temporary but somewhat extended periods of time. While we understand how they regulate their osmotic balance from salt to fresh we don't know exactly how long they can do it.

Most theorize they go into rivers to give birth (they are live bearers ) so the pups can reign king shit till they mature up a bit and get out to sea. But there is little evidence, leaving others to think they are just curious and roll wherever the hell they want.

But they have been found way way way inland several hundred miles into freshwater rivers...one of the cooler sharks for that fact alone imo.

Anyhow...stoner bio geek out is over...I gotta turn my compost piles and get a hillbilly hot tub going so I can bathe like a baus later

LOL that would be something else now wouldn't it? I put 5$ on the redneck....10 the Wells.
