Oss Oss!
Da Man, Da Myth, Da LEGEND!
Water was first
Morning rolled
fog steamed
from mud
where pollywogs
wiggled.
And legends began
drop
drops
From TEKONWATONTI: Poems of WarMolly Brant (1735-1795)
As to the last resting-place of Tamanend, this is a subject upon which a great deal has been written. The tradition that he is buried by a spring in New Britain Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, about three and one-half miles north of Doylestown, near the banks of the ?Jeshaminy, on the farm owned by Enos Detwiler, is generally believed. We would add, in further confirmation of the tradition, that Tamanend ended his life by setting fire to his wigwam.3
In the following lines, which appear in a song publishedIn the Pennsylvania Evening Post, April 30, 1776, reference is made to his end and also to his great age:" As old age came on, he grew blind, deaf and dumb,Tho' his sport 'twere hard to keep from it,Quite tired of life, bid adieu to his wife,And blaz'd like the tail of a comit, my brave boys."
The fact that an old Indian was buried at the place named in 1740 is not contradicted by any of the historians; the only question being as to whether it was Tamanend or some other Indian. The chief argument used by those who thought it was some other than our saint was that he must have been a very old man, and that they should have expected some mention of him by his contemporaries between 1697 and 1740.

Kamala Harris lost because she was a POOR CANDIDATE, change that please tp, A LOUSY CANDIDATE, who could never articulate a meaningful agenda. Democrats need to develop a plan.Stop the billionaire/Oligarch take over-is not a plan,& they'll need billionaire donors to win an election. Answer the question
She goes to an organization that recruits and trains Democratic women to run for office and then she screeches like someone scratching their Nails on a Backboard, about how bad President Trump is, and I am sure getting messed up in many of her word-salads. They want to hear her voice. They want to know who se really is, and what does she offer! And she doesn’t offer any of that.. ? All she has to offer is how much she hates Donald Trump! All that they have is hate, just like her supporters. .
Every day, we all should be thankful that the dems were not successful at stealing another election. Fortunately, the RNC did its job and prevented much of the fraudulent voting.
And now she’s conducting a PAY TO VIEW SPEECH. $25.00 in Advance Payment Will Allow You to Watch Her Rant and Rave.
Kamala Harris was Clueless in the last 4 years and still Clueless to day, And NOT fit to Lead and NOT fit to Run for anything.
Weakness begets Weakness. The Democrats need New Faces, New Voices, New Ideas, New Policies.. And that have None of Any of these .
