Or maybe I am and no one’s bothered to blog about it, which means it isn’t true.

I knew people who knew her, etc. and it’s all probably overblown, just a bit.

Yes, I went to Antioch, and UC Santa Cruz before that – but even before the stinkin’ hippies got to me, I couldn’t really find another explanation for how the US came about. And, yes, I smoked too much pot during the time I was originally learning US history – but all I remember is a Louisiana purchase,as far as non-stealing goes. But you factor in who we bought it from, and even that seems like getting a nice piece of jewelry from the local fence. Didn’t most of the rest of the country get acquired through force or trickery? That’s not a rhetorical question, I’m actually asking.
