Excellent work W1.

That coincides with the legend that an entire family of homeless Swedish peasants could set up house in a set of her discarded undergarments.

Things are starting to make sense.

Just more lies planted by Stephen Ambrose to hide his British monopoly on the BPB trade.

warspite1

So you think Ambrose didn't write about the incursion as he didn't want to unveil British involvement in the BPB trade? Interesting....

He started the incursion to hide the involvement. If he had written about it then all of it would have been even more lies and that would just cause more ways to bugger the initial lie.

warspite1

Er Ormster old chap, have you been taking conspiracy theory lessons from SLAAK? The only thing wrong with your theory is that it is total Sloblocks... Ambrose was born almost 100 years after the Incursion

I miss SLAAK.

Ahh, Orm.

While it's commendable that you defend your fellow countrymen, there's just no denying Sweden's massive warmongering in the past.

Why, you even sent soldiers to the GBPBW!

warspite1

Sweden is known globally for only two things - and neither are very nice:

1. Being a bunch of warmongers
2. Posting pictures of Aussie Surfer Dudes in Australian Beauty threads...

Hideous nation.... wasn't Adolf Hitler Swedish?

Nope. He was an English Duck.

So he was a Minnsodan duck. This is incredible - some would say unbelievable!

Amazing photos, just amazing.

It's incredible (some would say unbelievable) what this group of razor-sharp historians can come up with in such a short time.

Ambrose needed a conflict with Greece since they had cross breed Nutmeg with Peanuts and thereby had something that could become a threat to the BPB. Prussians were eager to do his bidding since they had a knack for fighting anyone at the wrong time. And the Swedes were to busy trying to tell everyone else what to do at the time that they failed to tell the Prussians what not to do. And since Napoleon had a stomach ache due to the fake BPB from Portugal there was no one around to stop this plot. The English, of course, were occupied with trying to ignore the Swedish who were pestering them.

Hence the conflict became a reality.

And a picture of the Greek plant that was the cause of the conflict.

Very astute, Orm.

But what about the South American angle to this story?

The Paraguayans and Uruguayans were standing breathless in the back ground, waiting to see what would develop.

Remember, they had a large part of the BPB market.

Hmmm.... perusing some old documents on Swedipedia, the new Swedish Wiki...

More to follow..

Gentlemen, before we go delving into South America I think we should continue to delve into ladies underwear. What was in Lohanius' underwear? Paper Clips, BPB or er the Nutmeg/Peanut combo?

Good God. The more I read, the more I get pulled into the dark history of Sweden.

W1, please pursue the undergarment angle. It does appear this was LoLan's main vehicle for getting the BPB into Sweden.

As for the Iowan and Minnesotan connection - it appears that those boys were all relatives of LOLan (and of each other).

I am reading the excellent book How Lohanius Used Her Profits from the Paper Clips Smuggling to Settle Indiana and Retired in Fishers by Stephen Ambrose. This book should settle the smuggling question.

According to Swedipedia, LoLan was using the St. Lawrence River to gain access to the Great Lakes and thus the interior of Minnesota. Apparently, Minnesota had a perfect climate for the growing of the peanut/nutmeg hybrid (called peanutmeg).

LoLan resettled large numbers of out-of-work Swedish fishermen there to tend her harvest. Thus the Minnesotan contingent in her reg't. Interesting.

Information from Swedipedia should not be considered fact. It was created by the Swedish Neutrality Department to help inform the rest of the world what they should do and make them believe in the illusion of Swedish neutrality.

Maybe that is the reason we Swedes love Holland and the Dutch.

That's true Orm.

We're finding the info from that agency was pure propaganda.

Modeled along the lines of Goebbels' ministry. Which makes sense, since Hitler was Swedish.

Oh my God, was Goebbels Swedish too?

I can't take much more...

Info in this book is very suspect as we all know. It was written while A was on one of his famous BPB binges.

There weren't any cows involved, were there? If there were, then which side of the BPB did they start with?
And did the Norwegians covertly aid the Swedes in setting up the Kensington Stone in Minnesota??
