I’d like to see the Pork Producers of America develop a marketing campaign to commemorate the “Pig War of 1859” between the USA and British Canada. We could have all sorts of BBQs in mid-June of each year, and “trash-talk” Brits and Canucks. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_W --------------------- DJT-45/47 MAGA !!!!!

Your link didn't work, 2BT. Here's one that does: Pig War (1859) Wasn't really won or lost by either side, until an international arbitrator decided in favour of the U.S. on October 21, 1872. But, hell, we have all kinds of meaningless days to celebrate all kinds of things, so why not celebrate our victory in the Pig War of 1859 on Oct. 21? Done!

It was on full display last night at my friend's 45th birthday party. Local band was playing and there were hats, glow sticks and beads. Jesus. Stuff was handed to me and I just tossed it on the table. I caught one set of the band, congratulated my friend and left. I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not. | |||
