Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

Please see the thread about TN and time zones.  It's "today" somewhere..........just like 5 O'clock.

not everyone is a math scholar or can read time, like all ya'll... this is the campfire, where even the smooth brains get to talk.

"damyankee" is still one word. Two of my cousins walked 40 miles to enlist in the Army of Tennessee. At least one of them survived the war. I found his name in the Dickson county property tax records from the 1890's. My great grandmother lived in Nashville during "reconstruction" and told me about the atrocities the soldiers from Ft. Negley committed during their occupation.

The biggest Confederate army under Johnston surrendered later near Durham, NC. Since Lincoln was killed it had to be unconditional. Bad news for the South. Inexplicably Johnston became fast friends with Sherman and died a few days after him from getting ill in the rain at Sherman's funeral. Lee was an old idiot elite planter with zero strategy for outlasting Yankee aggression. He didn't have to win. Not losing would have been easy.
