Anyway, here is some pretty precise figures for England/Wales for those who are interested.

Unpleasant video footage of reinstated Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson has emerged in which he appears to advise young men to marry underage girls because they are easier to control.
In the 2009 Sportsmen's Ministry talk, Robertson, 67, who began dating his wife when she was 14-years-old, advises his audience, 'You got to marry these girls when they are 15 or 16. They'll pick your ducks' - which is a literal reference to removing dead bird's feathers.
Warming to his stereotypical redneck theme, Robertson, who was suspended from the A&E hit for nine days earlier this month for homophobic comments, tells the gathered crowd that in addition to being young, the girls have to know how to cook and carry a Bible - 'That'll save you a lot of trouble down the road.'
While the speech given in Georgia is recounted in a somewhat tongue-in-cheek manner, in light of Robertson's strong views on traditional family values - protected by the First Amendment - they seem slightly inappropriate.
His advice for a happy marriage, which he claims is a kind of 'river rat counseling', is that all men 'Make sure that she can cook a meal. You need to eat some meals that she cooks, check that out.'

I have Nevada solar about 80ish miles north. Built on a dry lake where high winds and thus, lotsa dust are common.
Considering how solar panels actually work, ‘wrong’ does not begin to describe this fiasco.
To be fair, I did not include my reaction to his query.
Oh, yeah.
I’m a biddable little wench, alrighty.
;]
They either are or already have built a wind farm west of me.
The horror.
I can’t imagine living near to one and all that subsonic torture.
In that case you shoulda went into law enforcement...can you guess the coming song title reason why (the name that tune timer ticks... ;)
Just wait till you actually see it in person.
I can’t describe how totally “alien” it looks.
.....like it was put there by Giorgio Tsoukalos’ hairdresser.
Flannel shirt, ripped jeans with cow slobber on ‘em, FFA jacket and farm boots.
Total hillbilly hubby package.
I loved that guy.
He married a dear friend of mine and lives just up the pike from me.
They’re both good people.
[married young and still together...go figure]
:)
Sounds like driving up I10 out of Indio CA.
By Billy Joe Royal?
LOL
Man aren’t YOU the conceited one! HA!
You said name that tune!
:-P
[but I’m sure I coulda managed a little better look than *that*]
;D
Or perhaps you referred to this, thinking I’d be a brutal LEO?

A free American speaking solely for himself...what’s the problem? I think it’s the free part of the equation that is the problem.
She’s not conceited.
Just acutely aware of her status as the FreeRepublic Midnight Megababe.
Yup, that was not Al’s finest hour appearance-wise. But that album was awesome ;)
6 foot 3 with a fist like a hammer? Valkrye perhaps?
Anyway, here is some pretty precise figures for England/Wales for those who are interested.
Hey!
I loved his demented Katherine Hepburn On Crack look!
Totally under-rated, excellent album!
The shirts for that tour go for hundreds on ebay but some nice lady sold me one for aboyt $20 and then threw in another one free.
I don’t dare wear them.
They’re pretty fragile and made of very thin cotton but they’re a cherished part of my insane tour tee collection.
:)
Ansel, all your ‘facts’ do not erace the 320 million Americans who ALL have young wed family in their history. They do not show numbers that were never taken an most of the contenental landmass simply because there were no census takers on the American plains, the hillbilly heartland, the mountains of the north or the deserts of the west.
I’ll type slow for you.
The FACT that we ALL have young married ancestors TRUMPS ANYTHING you can counter SIMPLY because it is the reality of the world you live in.
