Marylanders, as a fine historian like yourself knows...fought for both sides. We just LIKE to fight!

"Civil War"? I think you mean the "War of Northern Aggression" or "War for Southern Independence". There was nothing civil about that war.

Si...Connecticut. Stamford, to be precise.

If you knew I was coming you'd have baked a cake?

My apologies for not saying something, sir! But, I wasn't planning on being here this weekend. I was supposed to leave Friday but I had to be back 1st thing on Monday. So....I got buffalo-ed by that moronic weather forecast into just staying.

I understand there's a pub down the street that shows futbul. About to head out now..

PM me if you have any questions or need suggrestions. If you go to South Norwalk tonight there are some great places to eat. Pasta Nostra is awesome. Reservation recommended thou.

Will do! This project is going to be going for a while. When the weather gets a little nicer, I'll be inclined to venture out more. Right now...it's dash out to get something & dash back...can't hack this cold anymore!

Of course there is nothing "civil" about any war, especially civil wars. And your terminology just proves that one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter.

How about the War of Southern Aggression? Last I heard they fired on Fort Sumter and took over Federal forts in at least Alabama and Florida before war broke out.
