Default How Houston got it's name- did ya know?

It seems Houston got it's name from Sam Houston while he was in dispute with a peer from Ohio. Imagine that... lol.

http://downfalldictionary.blogspot.c.../Sam%20Houston

The political similarities are even astonishing...

local government vs. national representatives

accusations of collusion with the White House

accusations of grand standing for marketing purposes

call for censorship

no real resolve

no justice

no diplomacy

no winner

just a bunch of embarrassment, loss of respect, anger, stress and drama for both sides which decreased the quality of the system in history and the lives of all involved.

The amazing thing is he was originally a Yankee and the only politician to be Governor of 2 states; the other was Tennessee.

Since when is a man who was born in Virginia, then moved to Tennessee and later what became Texas, considered a Yankee?

I give it 6. Starting now.
Lacey, what's the agenda this time?
Pissed because you got run out of our Houston Mod thread where you had no business in the first place
Or did you just want to dazzle us all with your brilliance and knowledge of history once more?
Maybe, it's gotten awfully lonely in Ohio. Now that you and JB have no one else to play with cuz the guy with all the handles got banned.
Simple explanation is your forgot to take your meds this morning.
But then again maybe you just missed my fucking awesome cat pictures.

Please feel free to correct my grammar and spelling as you see fit.

Sam Houston is one of my personal heros, he carried a boat load of demons and had to be tied to the bed when he got his drunck on. Now what was the over/under again WU?

Very good question...... if I'm not mistaken, when the south secede wasn't the capital of the Confederate states located in........ Virginia? (well.... to get technical.... at least 2 of them were....)

But what is less interesting is that ol' Sam beat the Ohio Representative with his hickory cane long before he was ever the President of the Republic of Texas...... which would then break any type of corollary that the OP was looking for.......

but on the bright side...... Wakeup is VERY happy to have you in the Sandbox!


Looks like the over of 7 hit..........

On or off the boards Father Wayward often needs spiritual guidance and turns to the Fucking prophet to provide it.

It is very nice to have you back, the board was poorer for your absence.
