Best evidence, Nuggin. Where is the attribution on this statement?
I agree that people like Palin are often over demonized.
But that statement by Nuggin seems correct.
Here she descibes it as "shout-out, gotcha":
Fox News
quote:
He did warn the British and in a shout-out, gotcha type of question that was asked of me, I answered candidly - and I know my American history.
...and that is in a positive article supporting Palin (as you would expect from Fox).
Edited by Panda, : better word

Lincoln getting assassinated is the worst post-millennium crime today!

Re: Fire Marks
jar writes:
In the early days of "Fire Insurance" the Insurance companies paid fire 'companies' to respond to a fire in one of their insured clients. Each company had a "Fire Mark" that would be displayed on the building identifying the Insurance Company.
IIRC, people used to look for these plaques and want to live next to them - because the fire insurance companies would also put out your building as it risked the building with the mark.
So, your neighbour would be paying for you fire insurance.
Crazy...
