Greeks and Nordics were sailors
Yeah exactly
my bad. haha
Do you live in Greece?
Cool. I've been to Athens, what a city! Got beaten up, harassed and chased, had a great time ๐
Lol
English is the most multifaceted language. There were 8 languages in Britain at one time
Also got drunk on a hotel roof bar looking up at the parthenon at night ๐
AMEN, my folks visited Switzerland for a week and were going to visit Greece for a week, but left after one night
Nice. I sailed around Corfu also, that was amazing. You could almost see the mythology in the landscape, loved it.
Why'd they leave?
Yeah
SHAKESPEARE'S "hamlet" was derived from Aeschylus's "Oresteia"
They said they left because it was so dirty
Athens is quite polluted yeah
That was where they were at
We're getting quite philosophical in here... And that's a big dang word coming from a redneck
The Phoenicians created Carthage. -- that's half way to Norway
Lol
@Pablo Snaggletooth yeah I ain't gots all the learnin so this is giving me a nose bleed
@Clare P you better grade that last statement I made
Nor me Phil, but I read alot about ancient history, I just dont retain the info that well๐คช๐
But a lovely patriotic one at that Phil<:trumpcountry:787139691836211240>
I suspect most of our chattters are well educated. You might enjoy the novel "Lady Chatterly"s Lover," Phil
@Clare P I do it gooder!
I wouldn't know where to start Phil . Had to read that a couple of times (with American accent in my head) to figure that one ๐
They were from where Lebanon is, now
It does make sense
Kids always extend words like that because it makes sense ๐
@Lloyd Owen I enjoy learning american history and really digging deep beyond what's in the books. With family being in military, you learn more than what you're supposed too. It's secret truths that interest me. Don't be mislead, I'm not ignorant in history.
<@783409965003440139> because we rednecks ruined it. It was always some buck tooth hick saying it
Click that link for trump supporters clashing with protesters
Looked like Police getting on the way again
*in
@Lloyd Owen I just haven't dug into other nations history as much beyond what links us together
I know right
Except for ancient alien theorist stuff... Which I take with a grain of salt
I read about 80 Civil War books, once I figured out that everything I'd heard and been taught was garbage
I remodeled 29 dilapidated houses, so my neck has been pretty red at times (ha
I need to read about 1776 and the civil war a bit more. I read a book about Custer and Sitting Bull not long ago, that was great. So much of what happened was down to the railroad companies pushing for more and more expansion
