Korrekt! Du far vandra vidare!

Once there was a mountain man who couldn’t write his name
Yet he deserves the front row seat in History’s Hall of Fame
He forgot more about the Indians than we will ever know
He spoke the language of the Sioux the Black Foot and the Crow

(Let’s drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high)
As long as there’s the USA don’t let his memory die
(That he was making history never once occured to him)
But I doubt if we’d been here if it weren’t for men like Jim

He spoke with General Custer and said listen Yellow Hair
The Sioux are the great nation so treat ‘em fair and square
Sit in on their war councils, don’t laugh away their pride
But Custer didn’t listen at Little Big Horn Custer died

(Let’s drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high)
As long as there’s the USA don’t let his memory die
(That he was making history never once occured to him)
But I doubt if we’d been here if it weren’t for men like Jim

There’s poems and there’s legends that tell of Carson’s fame
Yet compared to Jim Bridger Kit was civilized and tame
These words are straight from Carson’s lips if you place that story by him
If there’s a man who knows this God forsaken land it’s Jim

(Let’s drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high)
As long as there’s the USA don’t let his memory die
(That he was making history never once occured to him)
But I doubt if we’d been here if it weren’t for men like Jim

Ola Brude och ''brudegget'' Orædd som korsade Atlanten 1904?????????

[unmo300]

Trodde nog att varjag skulle plocka det aegget. En taeckt livbaat redan 1904, det skulle ta en 70-80 aar innan de togs i bruk. http://www.norway.org/ARCHIVE/culture/l ... ur%C3%A6d/

Varjag seglar vidare....

Varför inte...en liten gosse (som senare blev känd) kom snudd på att få åse detta elände. Men missade dramat då det plötsligt kom stormbyar med hårt regn - och det blev språngmarsch hem......Morgonen därpå fick han veta att det ståtliga skeppet som han sett dagen innan - hade gått i kvav i stormen strax efteråt
Vem var gossen, vilket var skeppet och när hände det?, Varjag
