One More Thing...

The vets also had one more wonderfully intelligent thing to say. I'm sure most have heard about the whole Dixie Chicks thing. But, as some of you may recall, and the history major in me will gladly remind you, there is this little, obscure document called the Constitution. And there is this little thing called Amendment I. You should read it. That whole free speech thing. How were the Chicks being un-American by practicing an American right? Hmm... some people just don't think things through sometimes.

Look Out For Charlies....

Today was a rather interesting day. This semester, I enrolled in a class called the Vietnam War and the American Imagination. We read various books and watched a few movies related to the war. Today, though, was by far the most interesting and worth the exuberant price of the class. We had a panel of Vietnam Vets talk to us and answer our questions. It was good to hear it from the source rather than just read accounts. One guy went back 3 times because of the way the soldiers were being treated when they got home... the whole ridiculous "baby killer" nonsense. He said he felt safer in Nam than he did here. Sad, so very very sad. Another statistic thrown at us by guys who know.... 58,000 U.S. soldiers were killed in Nam. However, 3 times that many committed suicide after the fact. Let's just hope this country has learned their lesson as far as that's concerned.

The First Real Post

In local news today...local meaning that it concerns the school I attend, which would be St. Norbert College (SNC)... a student from the school has gone missing. A little freaky, but they don't suspect it happened on campus. She was an older student and had been living off-campus with her husband. She was also an ESL (English as a Second Language) student. They found her car about 2 or 3 miles from campus at a bar she had never went to before. Her husband had been away in Upper Michigan and she hadn't been in classes either Monday or today. Just creeps me out a bit. Granted, I graduate on May 10th, but still the concern is there. No real way for them to determine that the incident, whatever it may be, has its roots on campus. I'll keep y'all updated on the situation. Fell free to drop me an e-mail if you want.

I'm Psychic! I knew it! No pun intended..

You are Psychic!

There! After about a half hour of tweeking and a crash course in very, very basic HTML I have modified the template to my liking! I added some links as well, more will be added in the future. This works for now. Next: Comments. Hopefully I'll get around to that soon.

changed the template... doesn't quite line up the way it should. I thought the flames would be appropriate. Hmmm..must fix.

Site under construction for the time being. hopefully it will be full-fledged and cool soon. In the mean time, check out Homestar Runner or perhaps The Onion

All right, test post worked... I think I can get the hang of this... I'm cool enough. I have to come up with a motto. "My Funny Motto" is not my motto. I'll think of something I'm sure. Thanks ot Katie for helping me come up with the name for the site.

Welcome to History Reheated. Dammit Katie and Tricia... look what you made me do! More to come later. Like tomorrow hopefully.
