Impossibly Perfect Sphere: Nov 6, 2002; They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!

The friggin Apaches lived in the south west for crying out loud. It would be so incredibly dumb.

Could be one of these? They don't exactly roll off the tongue either

quote:

The United States Capital is surrounded by just over a dozen tribal nations that thrive along the Anacostia and Potomac River watersheds, Chesapeake Bay area, and the states of Maryland, Virginia, and Delaware. Washington D.C. sits on the ancestral lands of the Anacostans (also documented as Pamunkey Indian TribeNacotchtank), and over time neighboring the Piscataway and Pamunkey peoples.

The District of Columbia shares borders with Maryland and Virginia, and connect with lands along the Anacostia and Potomac River. These river systems and current national parks are where the Piscataway, Pamunkey, the Nentego (Nanichoke), Mattaponi, Chickahominy, Monacan, and the Powhatan cultures thrived. According to the National Park Service, the region �was rich in natural resources and supported the local native people.� After the arrival of the Europeans, just 40 years later, there were only a quarter of the original occupance. The indigenous populations were decimated by new diseases and war. Many of the surviving joined other tribes beyond the boundaries of their ancestral lands, moving further inland and encroaching or merging with larger tribes.

According to the documented arrival of John Smith and first contact with the English colonizers in the 17th century, the indigenous tribes were intricately mapped throughout the Chesapeake Bay area. Within 40 years the existing indigenous townships and Powhatan cultures were crippled by the introduction of new diseases and war. The remaining numbers of tribes were forcibly removed from their homelands, pushed further to join larger tribes like those in the northern Algonquian speaking nations. Remaining tribes were sold into slavery in the Caribbean Islands. According to officials at the National Museum of the American Indian, there is no living Nacotchtank lineage left. Their numbers were decimated, and survivors were adopted into the Piscataway people, losing their original identity and descendancy.

The idea is that according to that article it'll be something that sucks off the military and also has Native American...something. Technically Warriors would sort of work. Washington Wounded Warriors.

I knew that would be the rhetoric if that's what they chose of course (which is so not happening), but this comment made me look up this list.

I'm partial to the Washington Cobra or the Washington Venom, both of which seem to represent Dan Snyder well.

So yesterday I was prepping a new computer for a girl at my office, and I asked her for her password. It has the Chargers' name in it and I asked her about that, she's originally from SD and laments their move to LA. We joked a little and got on with our days.

Today I brought over the PC and saw that she's out, in fact until next Tuesday. So I set her a nice surprise for her first login to the new machine:

Yeah I thought about doing the all mouths version but I decided not to get too weird.

Set up a new laptop for this girl since she's moving to New Orleans. Decided to get weird:

Should have it rotate backgrounds every few minutes and the images it rotates between are just that wallpaper with 1 of the faces swapped.
