Interesting read. Hypocrisy is best served hot.

What is on-topic about your obsession with Taylor
Swift? You're not actually *discussing* anything in
this mad flurry of inflamed posts. You're just trying
to somehow find fault with TS for the Apple music
contract battles.
It sounds to me like you have a crush on her.
Or as Taylor herself might put it:

Why be mean?
you gotta so

Lying comes so easy to you.

Now I suppose you are going to tell me that the reference was actually to
Cromwell’s army.

crap gun mo wonder he changed careers to making electric shavers.

Actually for 1862 it was a pretty good gun, better, more durable, and more
accurate than the cheaper competitor the Colt Army Model 1860.

....and Remington’s first diversification out of the firearms business were
sewing machines and the typewriter. With that typewriter they gave us the
QWERTY keyboard in 1873.

Yep. Probbaly comparing the time to the thatcher govenrment.

NMA.

I believe in justice
I believe in vengeance
I believe in getting the *******

Ramiington Arms is not to be confused with the founder's cousin,
Frederick Remington.

Is this just coincidence that talent runs in families?

Certainly not, you can’t shoot anybody with a painting or sculpture.

The Mohawk Valley being my old stomping grounds I am very familiar with the
Remington history and stuff related to it. The old Remington factory in
Ilion, NY was one of those places which was a landmark on my travels along
all of the valley roads from 5, 5S, to the NY ThruWay. There was a diner in
Ilion we used to hit for breakfast.

No. However, the education provided by money from political, industrial and
entrepreneurial wealth to certain families helps.

Somewhat comparable to Louis Comfort Tiffany of Tiffany glass fame. He
was the son of Charles Lewis Tiffany of Tiffany and Company jewelers.
"Breakfast at Tiffany's" was not about stained glass.

It wasn’t about breakfast either.

To be fair I wasn’t thinking along the lines of the Tiffany family and
glass, which has little to do with Eliphalet Remington the gunsmith.
I was referring to the fact that Frederic, who was born in 1861 the year
Eliphalet died, was afforded a privileged education at Yale. which was a far
more exclusive school in the 19th century than it is today. His family wealth
gave him the freedom to engage in a career as an artist.

Talent? I thought there was no such thing. Frederic's bronzes are
just the result of hours spent doing it. Anyone could replicate them
with enough time spent.

Or so some think.

Many of his cast bronze images are forgeries. Somebody spent the time to
replicate the original.
The forgeries are generally a bit smaller than the originals, and not
quite as sharp on the edges.

There is a difference. Fredrick C. Remington was a cousin, who was never
involved with the management of Remington Arms. While Louis Comfort was
very much involved with Tiffanys.
