  1. Yeah I had to look it up yesterday because it didn't make a lot of sense - Recently, I followed the trail on my drive from Cody to ABQ through the Wind River Reservation. Basically, there is a 600mi path through Wyoming called the Sand Creek Trail Massacre that commemorates the journey of the Cheyenne and Arapaho peoples in the years following massacre. When I stopped at one of the signs in Wyoming, it talked about the massacre but failed to mention that it actually occurred in Eastern Colorado and nowhere near where the sign was located. https://www.cheyenne.org/blog/post/sand-creek-massacre-trail/
  2. That should be good for Ukraine as it should piss off this admin, but who knows.
  3. How far is that from the Sand Creek Massacre?
  4. I’m not totally convinced - I still think there is a chance that there will be a revolt.
  5. Were they better than T. Rex?
  6. or they just want to get ctj’s hopes up before he sees McJaggy go off for 500yrds against OSU.
  7. Know about that as well. Maybe I misread the original point the poster was trying to make. I kind of speed read/skim posts most of the time. But with the bomb in particular, many, many Jews were involved. The most prominent ones were of German and Hungarian ancestry although Niels Bohr was Danish.
  8. Here are some key Jewish figures involved in the building of the nuclear bomb. This list is nowhere near exhaustive as it only includes some of the key contributors and none of the minor contributors: J. Robert Oppenheimer: Director of the Los Alamos branch of the Manhattan Project Leo Szilard: A Hungarian-born Jewish physicist, Szilard is credited with initiating the project by persuading Albert Einstein to write a letter to President Roosevelt. He also patented a nuclear reactor design with Enrico Fermi. Edward Teller: A Hungarian-American physicist, Teller was a key figure in the development of the hydrogen bomb, a more powerful successor to the atomic bomb. Hans Bethe: A German-born physicist, Bethe led the theoretical division at Los Alamos and made significant contributions to understanding nuclear reactions. Eugene Wigner: A Hungarian-American physicist, Wigner played a vital role in the development of nuclear reactors and the separation of uranium isotopes. Felix Bloch: A Swiss physicist, Bloch contributed to the theoretical understanding of nuclear physics. Niels Bohr: A Danish physicist, Bohr provided crucial insights into nuclear fission and was instrumental in the early stages of the project. John von Neumann: A Hungarian-American mathematician, von Neumann played a key role in the development of the bomb's detonation system. Richard Feynman: An American theoretical physicist who worked on the development of the bomb's detonation system. Otto Frisch: An Austrian-British physicist, Frisch was involved in early calculations about the critical mass of uranium needed for a nuclear explosion. Rudolf Peierls: A German-British physicist, Peierls co-authored a report with Frisch that first calculated the critical mass of uranium. These are just a few examples, and many other Jewish scientists contributed to the Manhattan Project in various capacities. If you are interested in Hungarian Jews in particular you should read up on the "Martians". Some interesting friends who grew up together and learned some math along the way. Those guys included Leo Szilard: A physicist who conceived the nuclear chain reaction. John von Neumann: A mathematician known for his work on game theory and the development of the modern computer. Eugene Wigner: A physicist who won a Nobel Prize for his work on symmetries in physics. Edward Teller: A physicist known as the "father of the hydrogen bomb". Theodore von Kármán: A fluid dynamicist who helped establish NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Paul Erdős: A highly prolific mathematician known for his collaborative work.
  9. mainly German and Hungarian Jews - not Nazis.
  10. Percy Foreman lived down the street from us. He’s dead now.
  11. Yeah, I live in the mountains so unless Yellowstone erupts, I should be fine.
  12. 10 each to Moscow and St Pete would be orgasmic.
  13. I’m not positive that is true. ctj can give better insight into how NIL is currently being structured, though. And just to be clear, there is no way in hell Texas would process one of the better players coming out of high school this year. It is not a smart discussion, especially since the guy has a very, very minor injury and goes to one of the premier high schools in the country. The other part of the discussion about why play your high school games is pretty dumb as well. Some guys like supporting their teammates. Some guys like playing football. Guys who skip their senior year of football just because have a pretty poor track record of performing well in college. Finally, all the posters involved in the global warming talk on the recruiting thread deserve to burn in hell or get a timeout whichever is more painful for them. Cheese puns, chicken fried steak, and cat talk is infinitely more entertaining.
  14. It may not be so bad. I set up a friend with a girlfriend of mine and he tore a hamstring having sex with her. He got over it pretty quickly and we were playing rec ball a few weeks later. Interestingly, he never had to choose between rec ball and her. Mainly, because she broke up with him, but that's another story.
  15. Maybe if we made it easier for bat shit crazies to obtain quarter pounders with cheese, there would be fewer homicides.
  16. Never wear ankle socks with long pants - too annoying.
  17. ha no khakis and only size 10 big ass white shoes!
  18. Having problems creating a CT mcJaggerson belt buckle
  19. ^^^ You or AI? Good work either way.
