Harriet Tubman replaces Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill

Lady Liberty is a French woman, so doesn't really count.

Back on topic.

I love Harriet Tubman. I went to Harriet Tubman middle school for three years. But the truth of the matter is is that you did not rescue thousands of slaves. She rescued about 300+. Here's what people may not know about her:

When she escaped her captivity she went back to that place 19 times and rescued all of her family members. She was out and about in a city and a white man demanded that she restrain a slave that had ran away from him. When she refused he hit her in the head with a two pound weight. She had seizures and blackouts for the rest of her life. This was when she was about 28. She rescued all of the slaves after this... Let that sink in... The slaves only moved at night. So in the middle of the night, feeling on trees for Moss to know which way was North she rescued 300-plus people. All while suffering from seizures and blackouts....

I can barely drive to a game without GPS...

The whole "moss only grows on the north side of trees" thingy is not factual, and certainly not something you can navigate by.

Some of you younger posters are clearly victims of revisionist history.

Here's the real scoop:

They should have put a woman on the two dollar bill because of their popularity in strip clubs. It would give the strippers something to look up to as they're bending down to pick up their tips.

Hey theprunetang, I'm heading to the panhandle next Friday for a couple weeks. Still in Panama City?

Yep. Still trying to find a job here so I can save up for a move back to Portland. I'll probably be in Panama city for another 3 months or so, hopefully. Where in the panhandle were you heading again?

They should put Prince on the $20 bill and call it $19.99. It will be the bill that was formerly known as a Twenty.

We'll be based at Defuniak Springs at my brother-in-law's place, but we're going to be all over the panhandle and North Florida doing day trips, lots of beaches, and New Orleans for a weekend.
