History is written by the victors. Thus, in order to truly study history with any accuracy one must take a step back, and try to see things from the losers side as well. Not the easiest of tasks.

Little do you know, the Civil War was actually nothing more then an elaborate dare when Jefferson Davis got Lincoln really drunk and dared him to release all the slaves. Later Lincoln made up the whole "Civil War" thing because he didn't think "Drunken Dare" sounded dashing enough to go in the histroy books...

Now, see, that would be fine by me if people would just ADMIT that half the horrors in history were just drunken bets/mistakes. Things would make more sense then.

Yes, but then people would want to learn history. And we wouldn't want that now, would we?

Heh. I was considering starting a "Conspiracies" thread, in which every post had to explain a wild and wacky conspiracy. Decided against it.

The term Hooker actually comes from a general in the civil war. Just thought you all might like that piece of useless info.

I mean useful, yes useful... somehow.

Speaking of hookers. In ancient Babylon the temple of Ishtar was responsible for the mandatory prostetution. They grew so rich they also became the cities chief bankers.

I wanted to be a history major. Still sometimes wish I was a history major. Until I remember that the only thing they can do is teach. And I am not good with children, and by not good I mean I can't stand them.

You could be a College Professor. You don't have to teach annoying little snots, and you get paid more to do less work on your own terms. Seems like a pretty sweet deal to me.

Depends on what to do, but research would be part of it.
