If it bothers you that I keep bringing it up, feel free to ignore me.
It looks like a link that you set up wrong.
And I don't care about your interests, your back story, or really anything about you. I just don't like that you claim to be a historian when in fact, you're a guy with hobbies.

Can't be cool can you? Did you really think I was going to leave it that way?
I'll go slow...
You start a flag football team in 2010. You will know that teams history, because you were there on day one.
Well I can do that for those topics I mentioned above. I know all there is to know about it. The first this, the first that, all of it. I know the complete.....history....involved. Dude
Cool....do you think you could link me to your published reports?Can't be cool can you? Did you really think I was going to leave it that way?

I can't imagine a 62 year old recently retired old man typing in that rolling eyes emoticon.
There is something just wrong about that image.
I play the harmonica, so unless I cut a record I don't/can't?
I love to dance and can but unless I'm a pro I can't dance?
I'm not out to write a book about the history of anything, so that has to mean I don't know the history? That make sense to to, me either.
The first blues record belonged to Mamie Smith in 1920. I can take you from there all the way up to right now, talking them blues. But I don't know the history because I haven't wrote a book? Want me break it down by region....
Mississippi Delta
Memphis
Georgia
Alabama
Texas
Piedmont
St.Louis
Dude, you really don't have a clue do you?
In case you haven't noticed I'm not your basic old man, hahahaha!!!!!
Avante, keep doing your thing- the naysayers.
TBH, I'm admittedly a little confused now because you are moving the goal posts.You can play it all you want, it just means you aren't a professional at it, which you've never claimed to be.No, you can, go right ahead....but you're not a professional at it, which you've never claimed to be.I love to dance and can but unless I'm a pro I can't dance?
Ahhhh, here's the problem see, before you were claiming to be a historian, and now suddenly it just means you "know the history". There is a difference between the two and you seem to now recognize that and are changing your story.I'm not out to write a book about the history of anything, so that has to mean I don't know the history?Hmmmmm, not sure what to say to this.That make sense to to, me either.
Again, you're changing the definition of what you are.The first blues record belonged to Mamie Smith in 1920. I can take you from there all the way up to right now, talking them blues. But I don't know the history because I haven't wrote a book?Yeah, I don't care.Want me break it down by region....

Go Team!Avante, keep doing your thing- the naysayers.
I plan on itAvante, keep doing your thing- the naysayers.
Funny how...
me...I'm this old frail dude with skinny little legs, a neck like a stack of dimes, a pot belly and stink.
everyone....yep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
then....
me...I'm only into a few things, football/track/music, an historian actually.
everyone...bull !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahahahaha!!!!!!!
Anything negative gets a ...sure!!!!!!!!! Anything positive...bull !
Except you're not.
Whatever man. If knowing about the origins of things isn't an historian,
The Oakland Raiders came into existence in 1960, I know everything there is to know about them. Would I be an Oakland Raider historian?
Whatever man. If knowing about the origins of things isn't an historian,
you play the skin flute
You still popping zits?
Grow up, please.
Avante, you know what's funny?
This johnsmith got has probably never been out in the world without the protection and umbrella of parents and/or school.
Yet he is trying to act like he knows something about the world.
Does it make any difference to anyone whether the le historian meets anyone's criteria?
Nope.
But it in' kills them to read that. No real reason why-it just seems to get their panties twisted.
Just as I suspected you don't know what an historian is.
paste..
his·to·ri·an
/hɪˈstɔriən, -ˈstoʊr-/ Show Spelled[hi-stawr-ee-uhn, -stohr-] Show IPA
noun 1. an expert in history; authority on history.
2. a writer of history; chronicler.
I'm number 1.
you smell like number 2
No, the writers of the books you've read on these subjects are number 1, they are the "authority" on the subject.....you are just a guy with a hobby.
Good lord your insults are tired and old. At least avante sticks with his guns and posts the same way no matter what. You're just terrible at this.
That'll show me.
So if I wasn't born in 1936 and actually saw Jesse Owens run to write about him then I could never be an historian? Guys who have researched the Cival War but weren't born until 1960 could never be an historian? Unless you write a book about something you could never be an historian?
How about this, I know all there is to know about them prewar blues, who recorded, when they recorded, but I could never be a prewar blues historian despite the fact I know all there is about it.
Dude
