Was wondering, do I need to get up early for the start of the Civil War tomorrow,

[Stonepounder]

or can I sleep in?

[Zoonart]

1. Don't you dare flake, man.

I heard you were bringing the snacks.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

30. snickering...

Yes, Don't be flakin'

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

41. Orange slices?

[pnwest]

2. I got my musket ready....

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

32. You have a fire stick??

I just have nun-chucks. But they're long ones.

[KCDebbie]

3. I'm making deviled eggs in preparation for the start

Of the Civil War tomorrow. I was told there would be a picnic afterwards...

[Stonepounder]

5. Is the victory parade scheduled before or after the picnic?

[KCDebbie]

7. I think it's supposed to be War, parade, picnic and then

Finally fireworks!

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

31. Deviled Eggs??

Can I Civil War w you??

[kimbutgar]

4. I was planning on binge watching a series on Netflix

Let me know if this civil war thing is happening so I can be ready to go at a moments notice.

12. if you like period piece murder mysteries

I just finished (or almost finished) the following:

1. Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries (Australian... set in 1927 or 1928) Found it due to another posting here.

2. Midsomer Murders - set in contemporary times... but in "Midsomer" England... a fictional bit of Oxfordshire and filmed there... very rich pictures of rural English Village life (but with murders of course) http://www.visitmidsomer.com/

3. Dr. Blake Mysteries - set in 1958 again in Australia near Melbourne. Just started this one.

My favorite so far is the Miss Fisher mysteries... real chemistry between the leads.

[kimbutgar]

13. I'll check them out if I don't have to fight in the civil war tomorrow

[lapfog_1]

15. My taco truck is ready to go

we will fight them in every intersection of every street in America!

[Laffy Kat]

23. Tacos?! Where do I enlist? nt

[Stonepounder]

18. Also take a look at

A Touch of Frost (Britbox) Unorthodox Inspector in Britian

Foyle's War (Acorn) British Inspector gets caught up investigating crime during WWII and often coming up against the moral dilemmas that war creates.

Both worth a look.

6. Hey, can I bum a ride to the nearest skirmish?

My car's in the shop.

[Tucker08087]

28. Just don't use Uber

I hear they are the resistance. Actually, aren’t we the resistance? Okay, not I’m not sure. You could rent a car, but remember The Alamo. Maybe go with Hertz. Wait, maybe also a bad idea. Thrifty? Thrifty is the exact opposite of tax and spend, which is the exact opposite of us, so Thrifty should be safe.

[Stonepounder]

8. Seen on Facebook:

"I think the first battle should be a Spelling Bee."

[lapfog_1]

14. in that case

The opposition will do "porely"

[Tucker08087]

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

27. Is nobody in charge of Mimosas and Bloody Marys?

Damn.

[edbermac]

10. Give me time to massage my bone spurs.

[Solly Mack]

11. I'm sleeping in but will photoshop myself into old Bowling Green Massacre footage. Should work.

Vive la technologie!

[smirkymonkey]

16. I think you can probably just sneak in later in the morning.

Do a kind of "Rosie Ruiz" kind of thing. Nobody will notice.

[struggle4progress]

17. Nothing ever happens on the first day of a civil war

Somebody has to announce the war has begun

Then everybody else chimes in, blaming the other side for starting it and predicting it will be over soon

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

35. Right....

Depending on weather etc...maybe sketch me in for Battalion Duty Friday? I can pull a double.

[Midnight Writer]

19. I intend to be late since I don't have a gun. I figure I can pry one from a cold dead hand.

[Laffy Kat]

24. .....

[Tucker08087]

26. Wait. We need guns?

I was bringing ten gallons of blueberries and a pea shooter. And clams on the half shell, of course. I’m from the South Jersey coast, and it IS the Fourth of July. It’s all fun and games until one quarter-sized blueberry hits someone in the eye. Then GAME ON!

[Rhiannon12866]

39. ...

[CatMor]

21. Will the Civil War last more than one day .....

[thbobby]

22. Civil War has already started here

I can hear the cannon fire outside. Dems started it early.

[Tucker08087]

Or until, say, noonish.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

36. Right on.

Papillon! Power to the People.

[NanceGreggs]

40. Actual history

Tells us on the first day of the actual civil war, picnics were ongoing because noone thought it would last longer than a day???
So we can jave our war AND a picnic.

[Squinch]

42. No way I'm going before I get my nails done, so...

43. Operation Covfefe WTF will commence at 0800 Zulu or

whenever your local Starbucks opens.

[bluecollar2]

44. Go ahead and sleep in

We'll pencil you in for second shift...

3:00 to 11:00 pm.

You'll get paid $200.00 in shift differential over and above $1,500.00 George Soros is paying for the 8 hours.

We're still negotiating terms on the uniform maintenance allowance.
