I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Poor Greenland, their hopes of getting a lustrous mining industry has failed. Metal prices has fallen and there's no oil in sight.

I guess they still have the fish, rampant alcoholism and widespread child raping.

USA offered to buy Greenland in 1946, but Denmark refused. :mad:

Interesting scenario. Immediate thought is that it would've been better for all three parties.

So my sister, in a bout of helicopter-parenting close air anti-armor support, over-ordered Girl Scout cookies in order to push my niece over the top on the leader board, and is now up to her ass in Girl Scout cookies.

Americans subsidies and as a territory, low taxes.  I don't see how it benefits the US much though.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

America needs to annex more white people to stem the black/brown/yellow tide.
