Here's one for our American friends: name the three future US presidents who served as officers in the War of 1812. * Courtesy of Gary McClellan @ Gamesquad.

Here's to Sir Isaac! And Ian, you sir are on a roll!

What role did Sir Isaac Brock play in the War of 1812?

If you read carefully, there's a reason I wrote "nice guys need not finish last". EDIT: Where was Kezia when I was "playing the field"?

Nice guys need not finish last.

Crazy Horse mastered the assault on the senses. My ears are still bleeding from the last time Uncle Neil and the boys rolled into town.

Jason, I've said it before and I'll say it again. I love reading your posts. The moment I see the sender I tell myself: "better grab a second cup of coffee and settle in for a good read."

Man's gotta do something when there's no more wars to fight. Wait a second...no more wars to fight?

We also wouldn't be surprised to see remnants of the once-powerful Kriegsmarine fighting on the ground as the German naval presence declined.

Luftwaffe field divisions arose in the latter stages of the war as The Axis went on the defensive. As airfield personnel became redundant, they formed the last line of defense for the Third Reich.

Thanks, Erwin. It looks as if Ian has some competition here!

So who was Tecumseh?

^^ @ Kohlenklau "...dudes with 6 arms and stuff..." Would we find that under "rarities"?

Sometimes a beaver tail is just a beaver tail.

Does she have a sister?

Having learned of the contribution made by Lady Secord, it is surprising that we don't have a greater representation of the fair sex in this forum.

So we've gone from molesting cats to tasting beaver tail to a bovine fetish. Where will it end? ...and they said the cow was mad.

Fetchez la vache!

Ian, you da man!

Because some of you might arrive at this post with expectations of being enlightened... Who can tell me the role Laura Secord played in the War of 1812? Hint: it has nothing to do with chocolate...or beaver tails.

That explains the wicked hangover!

For the record, and in fairness to the beaver, breakfast was consensual.

As per the original post, the War of 1812 pitted a coalition of British forces, United Empire Loyalists and Native peoples against the American invaders. In other news, Beaver Tail...not just for breakfast anymore.

...or then again, maybe it WAS a reference to...well, you know.

The "reviewers" make an excellent case for thinning the herd.
