Minnesota is fine, buddy. Currently live in the twin cities, it’s all good. Winter is a great excuse to buy a bunch of cold weather gear, really just have fun with it. I built a huge snow fort last winter, race track for the dogs with tunnels. I’m starting to like winter more than summer in my late 30s, I’m not so sweaty, don’t have to mow the lawn.
Apparently there are some people here who challenge themselves to never go outside all winter. Park indoors, use the skyway downtown.
I saw this happening in real life one time, on the back of a Dodge Neon. Best part is they were in the parking lot of a Planned Parenthood. We cheered them on, then went about our business.
This guy lived from 1880 to 1956, it makes a great deal of difference at what age he made this statement. Which version of republican was he talking about?
“Mencken opposed the American entry into World War I and World War II. Some of the opinions in his private diary entries have been described by some researchers as racist and anti-Semitic, although this characterization has been disputed. Larry S. Gibson argued that Mencken’s views on race changed significantly between his early and later writings, and that it was more accurate to describe Mencken as elitist rather than racist.” -Wikipedia
Interesting.
