    What Was Life Really Like in 1950's America?

    That and they were made in defiance of what we saw as the Soviet program for the West. Looking around us today, maybe they were not too far off the mark.

    Christianity is growing strongly in Russia

    I jest. It is interesting tough how you note the pentecostal madness came in after the walls fell. I know a few Eastern Europeans who have fallen away from the faith due to those false promises and overall lack of coherency.

    I grew up around French and Indian War battlefields. Went to a pair of reenactments. They are A LOT of fun. There's still time, man! Save up and do a big one like Gettysburg. I always wanted a sword from the Colonial Era, but my parents thought my intentions were more than decorative... Do...

    Starbucks now wants their employees to become "Color brave" and refer to their stores as a "third place"

    Peets is on sale pretty often where I live. If it isn't, I'll fall back to Gevalia. I can't do flavored coffees either.
