Don't mess with Texas 2019
The Texas Longhorns beat the favored Georgia Bulldogs in the Sugar Bowl. But the best clip is from before the game, when Bevo decides to show Uga who's boss.

And just in time, a fitting bookend.
Gunman kills 2 at White Settlement church before 2 members fatally shoot him
Churches where I live couldn’t recruit a volunteer armed security squad even if they wanted to. Then again, there are no towns here named White Settlement.

One of the three houses my daughter manages for some rich guy is in White Settlement; she was in Pasadena. It's a suburb of Fort Worth for those of you who don't know.jarnon wrote: ↑Mon Dec 30, 2019 8:19 amAnd just in time, a fitting bookend.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Re: Don't mess with Texas 2019
Just curious, cause White Settlement was established awhile back, in re Native American whatever, right or wrong. Just wondering about current segregation, demos in PA, Merion, right?Bob78164 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 30, 2019 6:32 pmUnless he's moved recently, jarnon lives in the Philadelphia suburbs, the same part of the world where I grew up. --BobBeebs52 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 30, 2019 6:22 pmWhere is it you live?jarnon wrote: ↑Mon Dec 30, 2019 8:19 amAnd just in time, a fitting bookend.

Re: Don't mess with Texas 2019
Regardless of nice pictures of William Penn and the Lenape Indians, Native Americans were oppressed here too. And blacks were segregated until that became illegal. But if a place name reflected that shameful past, it would probably be changed.

Interesting article from Vice here, on that very subject. The article does mention a place called "Negro Mountain" in Pennsylvania.jarnon wrote: ↑Mon Dec 30, 2019 10:59 pmRegardless of nice pictures of William Penn and the Lenape Indians, Native Americans were oppressed here too.
