Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Default The 'Oregon Trail'.....Was this the start of the downfall...???
I remember getting a letter from the School district my kids attended. It said something to the effect of, "your children will be required a home computer to help them with home work and school assignments" (or some BS like that).

I bought a Apple 'PowerMac', and a week later, received a letter from the school district, that they no longer use the 'Mac/Apple platform'. FU!!! I spent $2300 for a f***in' computer that my kids can't use?!?!?

Even its creators aren't sure why it has been so popular for so long…

"It's touched a lot of people's lives. They say, ‘you saved me in middle school or 5th grade.’ It really meant a lot to a lot of people," Dillenberger said.

But they hope what started as their pet project continues to have people jumping on the bandwagon for years to come.

"I guess its lasted this long. It's going to last another 50 years," Heinemann said.
