Paul Revere rides tonight

nikimcbee · 04-18-08, 05:58 AM

The British are coming! The British are coming!

It's Steed and JimBuna with their red-coated hordes of smilie faces! To arms! To arms!

We must hold them at the Green, or they'll force to bow to their King; Gordon Brown or Prince Charles or something like that! They'll build round-a-bouts on our roads, force us to spell harbor and color with the letter "u", and worst of all, they'll force us to listen to the Spice Girls!

To arms patriot subsimmers!

The Fifteen-minute-men! (15 with coffee, 20 without)

Ireland adopts a status of neutral observer, herebey declaring Spice Girls records contrary to the laws of war.

The Lobsterbacks are already infiltrating. Not 15 minutes from Lexington green there is a traffic circle right on Rt-2. At least we don't call it a roundabout...

As a youngster of 15 my Boy Scout troop participated in the annual Minuteman reenactment march from Acton to Concord. As it was the 200th anniversary (Apr 19th 1975) there were several thousand people at Concord bridge and we were even treated to a speech by President Ford marking the occasion.

That's pretty cool!

I just finished reading "1776" so all of this stuff is pretty interesting. I'd lov to see a Rev War re-enactment. There aren't enough out here on the West coast to make it exciting. Rev War is also really expensive to re-enact. The uniform prices are really high!
