Every now and then an oldster will nod their head sagely and say "I remember that day"/ We frequently give a passing thought to them and carry on with today's concern.
I want to introduce a possibly unfamiliar and rarely used word to you: Demarkation

From the Oxford dictionary: Origin

" Early 18th century: from Spanish demarcación, from demarcar 'mark the bounds of', ultimately of Germanic origin and related to mark1. Originally used in the phrase line of demarcation (Spanish linea de demarcación, Portuguese linha de demarcação), the word denoted a line dividing the New World between the Spanish and Portuguese, laid down by the pope in 1493."

UPDATE: 60% of target. New Total: 3007.59

On Sunday, Joe Biden lost his mother-in-law, Bonny Jean Jacobs, after a long illness . Many people have been thinking about how we could honor her memory, given our appreciation of Senator Biden.

Well, I'm working on a Daily Kos pet project, supporting a women's shelter on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation ,and had an idea.

Since Senator Biden wrote the Violence Against Women Act , which funds women's shelters like the Pretty Bird Woman House, we would like to have a bunch of people <a</p>

"Pretty Bird Woman House, a women's shelter on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation .

The average rainfall is 16-17 inches during the summer season. The growing season lasts three months, June to August. The snow fall averages from moderate to heavy for winter weather. The temperature in the winter is from 30 degrees below zero to 17 degrees above zero. The average temperature in the summer is 80 degrees but will range from 69 degrees to 110 degrees from June to August. The area suffers from occasional drought in the summer and severe blizzard in the winter

A furnace is considered to be a necessity of life on the South Dakota Plains, which is exactly where Pretty Bird Woman House is.

This will be short. I am calling out to all of those who are any of the following:

In the service
In-Country (Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea, Germany)
In danger of immediacy

Have a relative in any of the above categories.

We are assumed to be anti-American - which we all know is the ultimate ass-u-me. I would put up our statistics against any conservative site as being more indicative of patriotism, devotion to counry and commitment to the Constitution. What say you?
