Dear baseball,
Thank you for everything you have given me including a family, life lessons, a coping place, and memories that will last forever. I can no longer play the game, but I will always have the mentality that you have given me to face adversity later on in the world.
@davidson_caleb I mentioned this to someone earlier today. I think if these European countries didn’t tell their people how it sucks in the US, they would eventually find out how we have ABUNDANCE here and would demand the same from their countries. Just a thought
Just realized the Europeans will be present to watch Joey Chestnut inhale 84 pork pistols on live television in honor of our nation’s independence.
That one will break them completely.
OTD,1775. Samuel Whittemore,aged 80 becomes a legend.
Whittemore working in his fields spotted an approaching British relief brigade, sent to assist the retreat from Concord. Whittemore loaded his musket and ambushed the British grenadiers of the 47th Regiment of Foot from behind a nearby stone wall, killing one soldier. He then drew his dueling pistols, killed a second grenadier and mortally wounded a third. By the time Whittemore had fired his third shot, a British detachment had reached his position; Whittemore drew his sword and attacked.He was subsequently shot in the face, bayoneted numerous times, and left for dead in a pool of blood. He was found by colonial forces, trying to load his musket to resume the fight. He was taken to Dr. Cotton Tufts of Medford, who perceived no hope for his survival. However, Whittemore recovered and lived another 18 years until dying of natural causes at the age of 98. -wiki.
