Highly M&P, But Wow, I'm Floored

Really – I had no idea about this.

Here is the “Lincoln County 1836 Tennessee Civil Districts And Tax Lists”, listing out the last names of people who lived there at the time.

Scroll down to “H”, and check out the fourth one in.

Huh.

Admittedly, most of you will find this much less amazing than I do, but I’m-a posting this anyway…

Well, neither “Attack from the 3rd Dimension” nor my IRL name is on the list, so if you’re going to be teleported back to the past, you’re going without me. I suggest you check out the ‘time travel with a backpack’ thread, and start memorizing events in the 1840’s. Also, get your vaccinations up to date, just in case.

Assuming you arrive in 1836 you’ve got the Trail of Tears to worry about, and the civil war coming up in only 25 years. Good luck.

Edited to add: Don’t forget to bring your cellphone.

Ah, Lincoln County. Sheep country.

Unless you are from Lincoln County Tennessee you must be **really **bored today.

I was sure it was gonna be Hitler

Are you suggesting that Hal feels sheepish?

Very cool.

What does it say about me that the first thing I saw was Mr. Hardon in the next line?

cues Twilight Zone music…

I thought it was going to be Sam Houston.

Dude, you’re old.
