Ewok,
Thanks for this. I appreciate it more coming from you. You won some major points in my book for the sentiment.
Have a good one.
Hold it down.

I'll just add this to a very good thread. (friendly nod to Ewok)
America isn't Washington and it isn't the DHS or Government. This is America out where I live and what I saw personally across 15 years of driving across the roads this video flys over. Enjoy the real America, as I see it.
The word "denim" comes from the name of a fabric that was first made in the city of Nîmes, France, by the André family. It was originally called serge de Nîmes but the name was soon shortened to "denim."
Denim has been used in the United States since the late 18th century.[2][3]
Denim was traditionally colored blue with indigo dye to make blue jeans, although "jean" formerly denoted a different, lighter, cotton fabric. The contemporary use of the word "jean" comes from the French word for Genoa, Italy (Gênes),[1] where the first denim trousers were made.
