Well, the History Channel here has some of that too. Particularly about that little ruckus that started in 1775.
Probably a different point of view over there though.


That hasn't made it to the programming here. I will say that I'm sick and tired of the Battle of Britain.

They did have a show on a James Macy, illigimate bastard [is that redundant?] of an aristocrat. For some reason, that I missed. Macy left his fortune [inherited from his father to the US in the 1840's. It was English Sovereign that the Treasury melted down to the tune of $2 Billion...which found it's way into some Arkansas Real Estate Scam. They had thieves in the Treasury back then <LOL>.

Congress managed to get the cash back and used it for what James Macy had intended...Oh....James Macy had taken the surname of his father..James Smithson. And now we have the Smithsonian.

P.S. IMO, All you defense related employees need to start dusting off the ol' resumes. It's company hopping time again. Double-digit pay raises while you hop.
