Wallace evaded capture by the English until 5 August 1305 when John de Menteith, a Scottish knight loyal to Edward, turned Wallace over to English soldiers at Robroyston near Glasgow. Letters of safe conduct from Haakon V of Norway, Philip IV of France, and John Balliol, along with other documents, were found on Wallace and delivered to Edward by John de Segrave.[23]
Wallace was transported to London, lodged in the house of William de Leyrer, then taken to Westminster Hall, where he was tried for treason and for atrocities against civilians in war, “sparing neither age nor sex, monk nor nun.”[24][25] He was crowned with a garland of oak to suggest he was the king of outlaws. He responded to the treason charge, “I could not be a traitor to Edward, for I was never his subject.” With this, Wallace asserted that the absent John Balliol was officially his king.[citation needed]

Following the trial, on 23 August 1305, Wallace was taken from the hall to the Tower of London, then stripped naked and dragged through the city at the heels of a horse to the Elms at Smithfield.[26] He was hanged, drawn and quartered — strangled by hanging, but released while he was still alive, emasculated, eviscerated and his bowels burnt before him, beheaded, then cut into four parts. His preserved head (dipped in tar) was placed on a pike atop London Bridge. It was later joined by the heads of the brothers, John and Simon Fraser. His limbs were displayed, separately, in Newcastle upon Tyne, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Stirling, and Perth. A plaque stands in a wall of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital near the site of Wallace’s execution at Smithfield.

Well if I heard right the Gators and Bama went into halftime tied 21-21 ? Man, that aint no small deal. And I heard game stats was something like Alabama 600+ yards on Offense and Gators around 150 yards. One would think the game would have been MUCH more lopsided than the final score indicated. Tellin ya, dem swamp lizards did well !!
I know, I didn’t even bother listening to the Georgia game. A friend of mine sent me a text message that Ga needed this game to build their confidence back up after last weeks loss. I wrote back, you only build confidence when defeating a WORTHY opponent.
Chin up pardner, I think this years Gator/Dawg game is gonna be a good one. 🙂 Pretty sure it will beat watching the Bankster Vs Goldbugs. Geesh, are we ever gonna get a break ??

In case anyone is thinking of buying phyzz from SprottMoney, this was my experience with one of their “special offers” – I think the offer was $40 over spot and free shipping.
2003 Maple in a plain plastic envelope. Coin seems to be in good condition, but not properly “slabbed” and labeled. It serves the purpose for me, as I never intend on selling; just wanted to give a heads up in case anyone is thinking of buying from Sprott.
What I really like about SprottMoney is that they accept personal cheques .. not insisting on expensive wire transfers.

a convertible too ! But I don’t think it really compares with my ‘Chick Magnet’ do you? I guess ole Betsy could use a coat of wax, but I used up the Turtle Wax on my fishing rods. And I figure if a gal wants to feel the wind in her hair, she can just ride in the back with Lulubelle. I dunno, I must be missing something. Maybe an upgrade from the 8 track player to a cassette ? Pair of dice ? Take out the gun rack and put one of those singing bass singing Elvis songs? Kinda make it a Romance Motel on wheels. Thanks for the suggestion. See what I can do. Say, any ideas how to get the smell of chicken manure out of the back?

And yet people will watch that and still choose to deny that there is any connection to the corruption that orchestrated the event. Thanks for sharing!! None are so blind as those who will not see!

Yeah, I seen her little snippety crayon remark. Lord, a man writes a love note in crayon and it just aint good enough for some folks. Course, in thinking back I think the very first love poem I ever wrote in crayon was in the third grade to a pretty little girl named Wendy and as I recall it didn’t work that well back then either. Might have something to do with the teacher catching me passing notes during class and making me stand up in front of the class and read my poem outloud. Not sure who’s face turned the reddest, mine or poor Wendy. Reckon I will swear off writing anything in Crayon from here on. 🙂
Maybe if I had stuffed that love poem in a pair of shoes before giving it to her ? Could be worth a try ? Wonder if ole broomstick slayer likes to go bowling ? Better she take out her angst on some bowling pins than my head I think.

Think she knows how to tie em ?

Well, got one woman wants to sandpaper my butt, another one that wants to drown me, …aint the first Saturday morning I woke up wondering if I would still be breathing come sundown. And I think those box of Crayons should come with a warning label : Can Be Hazardous To Your Love Life.
Maybe you can give me some tips. How’d you get that Lady Bug to like you ? 🙂
Have a good one, Farmboy (Least we don’t have to worry about those banksters doing evil things to us today)

Good point and one day she will wake up and shake off the pests irritating her and won’t care what religion or country they’re from or what title they have. She brought you in she’ll take you out.
in the meantime. Saw a funny thing today while stopping at a gas station. Won’t mention race or religion for that matter. Some guy walked in when to to the back of the store grabbed a empty box filled it with things and started to walk off with it. A elder guy from India tried to stop him and there was a struggle for the box. I didn’t know what happened yet so stayed quite and only would react if the elder was attacked.he ran off with the box saying it was his. That’s when the teller told me what happened. I said call the police. He said I called them before they don’t come. He said something to the effect upset and mumbling they say was it over 10 dollars. I guess these punks know they won’t come and do it all the time. I told him well call them anyways and make a report and keep the tape on the camera. Guess they need to start taking pictures of then and paste them all over the store. Nothin worth him getting hurt over but the principle. He needs to get a automatic lock on the door so they can’t leave but if they don’t come guess it’s no use. Guess it’s too inconvenient for them when they can hand out tickets.
