♣ Stuff That Interests Me

Remembering Our Bloodiest Day May 26, 2012
The bloodiest day in American History was September 17th, 1862. On that day 23,000 Americans became casualties in the Battle of Antietam (near Sharpsburg, Maryland). Ironically, the battle was fought on land that was farmed by German Baptist pacifists. Some of the worst fighting took place near their Dunker Church and near by cornfield. One of

Empires May 16, 2012
I am not certain of the producer’s intent with this video about empires but one thing it does do, is give one a sense of proportion when it comes to the current nation-state of Israel. Note the relative size of the empires labeled Caliphate, Ottoman and Seljuk, all Moslem empires. Today Israel is surrounded by

The Wilhelm Scream May 15, 2012
Have you ever heard of the Wilhelm Scream? If not, you will after viewing this compilation. As a side note, look for the scenes from the 1954 movie “Them.” Back in the day, as a boy the big treat was to stay up late on Friday night and watch the Late Show with my dad

The Crusades, Reconsidered May 5, 2012
Reblogged from Blogs For Victory: From an excerpt of Jonah Goldberg’s new book, Tyranny of Cliches’: …Until fairly recently, historically speaking, Muslims used to brag about being the winners of the Crusades, not the victims of it. That is if they talked about them at all. “The Crusades could more accurately be described as a
