DIGGING UP HISTORY!

  DIGGING UP HISTORY!
 SATURDAY, JUNE 20TH., 2020

    I've always been impressed with those
archaeological sites where they dig up
things like pottery and arrow heads.
Impressive artifacts of past civilizations.
    I wonder what future archaeologists
will dig up? And how deep they'll have
to dig! The current politically correct
climate has seen the disposal of many
statues originally placed as monuments
to Generals who served the Confederate
States of America. The argument for
their removal centers on those officer's
support for a rebellious America that,
at the time, supported slavery. But if
that's the case somebody is bound to
point out that George Washington
owned 140 slaves by the time the
Revolutionary War began. Thomas
Jefferson owned more than 700.
There goes the Washington Monument
as well as the city and state names
along with Jefferson's home at
Monticello.
    And what if the movement spreads
world wide? You'll need a very deep
pit to bury the coliseum. And what
to we do with those Egyptian
Pyramids? They weren't built by
contractors!
   I guess you can bury history but
that doesn't really hide it!
Hope you're well and that all your
NEWS is good!
