@romulusnr
@romulusnr 8 месяцев назад
Every good anti-tax hawks knows government employees don't deserve to enjoy work on the taxpayer dime. I briefly worked for the city of Seattle and they didn't even have fuckin coffee. Sections of the floor would pool together into "water clubs" and rent water cooler service. You had to pay up in that club to use that water. Fuckin dystopian. But it's all because selfish conservative fucks are like "why are government workers enjoying themselves with MAH WALLIT?!?!"

Yeah, I would recommend Cunningham Falls if you’re good with a bit of hiking and you’re in the area. I grew up a half hour from there, and never really noticed how close it was. There’s also Raven Rock Hollow on the appalachian trail a bit to the west, if you want to get *really close* to *another* location of interest. Definitely *don’t* walk north-east from Campsite Three up that’a’way, unless you want to have a bad time of it, though.

Fun fact, I’ve actually been to Camp David, although I hardly remember it, and it *was* before 9/11. My parents owned a landscaping company in my hometown when I was a kid, and my dad got a contract to deliver mulch to them ten-or-so times over the course of two years. And then he screwed over any chance he’d ever have of renewing that contract by bringing 4-year-old-me along for the ride on his second-to-last delivery. Apparently the security thought it was pretty unprofessional of him, and I wasn’t allowed to leave the truck, but he got away with it; and really, he thought the experience was worth the cost to business.

We would see the helicopters fly over our house whenever the president was staying there.

Originally known as Hi-Catoctin, Camp David was built as a retreat for federal government agents and their families by the Works Progress Administration. Construction started in 1935 and was completed in 1938. In 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt converted it to a presidential retreat and renamed it "Shangri-La", after the fictional Himalayan paradise. Camp David received its present name in 1953 from President Dwight D. Eisenhower, in honor of his father and his grandson, both named David.

I worked as a Job Corps recruiter between 1968 and 1972. This LBJ Great Society program starting in 1965 established CCC-like camps in rural areas across the country to provide education and job training for disadvantaged youths between 16 and 21 years old. I sent a number of young men to the Catoctin Job Corps Center that was essentially next door to Camp David. While Camp David had been used by President Eisenhower through 1961, Presidents Kennedy and Johnson used their own family compounds for relaxation. In 1969, President Nixon decided to start using Camp David again, and the Catoctin center was closed, along with a number of other centers across the country. My understanding is that the center became the place where the marine contingent was housed, since it had barracks, a mess hall, and gymnasium. I think I saw it to the left outside of the perimeter fence in the photo @ 1:49.

Maybe we shouldn’t do all this to protect someone who does not have anybody’s interest at heart? Maybe I should do something about that?”, yet it’s always “Nah, i’ll just get my paycheck and go home to my family that never sees me because i’m always off managing the destruction of people’s livelihoods”. I work in a financial industry for a few years and i’m very close to leaking trader secrets to expose several businesses of their fucked up nature, however that information is already out there and nobody cares unfortunately since it’s just a fact of life we deal with on a daily basis.

Sam proves his DC area bona fides by trashing Hagerstown.

If you're curious, trashing Hagerstown as a redneck-y place is something Marylanders, specifically, are wont to do. We Virginians have a lot of Appalachia in our state, so places like Winchester (a close analogue of Hagerstown) don't get the same hate. But Maryland has only a tiny sliver of Appalachia with a correspondingly small impact on state identity, so when the snobby urbanites from Silver Spring and Ellicott City put down their Old Bay-seasoned blue crabs long enough to go west, they can't believe Hagerstown is part of their state.

I don't think it is, as leaves could hide IEDs or other lethal devices, so they remove the leaves, make sure there are no bombs, and put the leaves back.

We lived in Maryland and often drove in that area. One time we were curious to see Camp David and drove there. Just before you get to house, the road divides and we drove on the lane that goes up to the house but soon encountered security. The pres wasn't there at the time but we had to turn back and were only able to see the trees which hide the house. It is not a fancy place. The house is old and small. We used to go to a Buffett restaurant in Hagerstown and some times there would be secret service at the restaurant.

There is a Quaker summer camp located very close to Camp David, and it fairly regularly has a group of campers get lost and wander onto the property of Camp David, where they are met by men with big guns asking them why they crossed that barbed wire fence instead of you know, turning around. This happened like yearly during my youth as a camper there, I was never one of the campers though.

Its a very interesting area to hike. You czn get much closer than you think. Some of the hiking trails are even gated, and closed in the event that someone from camp david wants to use the hiking trails.

I actually went to a real summer camp for children with mental disabilities when i was like 11 at Catoctin Mountain Park near Camp David in 2009. We even saw Marine One once. It felt like a prison for me since it was full children who had very severe autism, like they can't function in the "real world" and down syndrome and i have the kind of autism that makes you scream "I AM A SURGEON" to Dr.Han.

Camp David isn’t really very secluded. It’s not too far from DC, and you can drive right past the entrance. The sign says “Camp #3.” I’ve been by there many times. However, they close the road when the President is there.

Its funny you mention FDR's wandering in South Dakota, FDR had a few summer white houses here in the Black Hills of South Dakota, one up near Sylvan Lake that burnt down not long after but another was the Rapid City High School Building in Rapid City, thats the place from which he announced he would not seek re-election and the same place I would attend high school some 80 years later, my math class was his former summer white house oval office.

When i was in the Marines I had hoped to become the Camp David squirrel tracker, but I never got picked for some reason. I always felt that it was my biggest failure during my active service. Then i saw this and I realize what sh*t duty that would have been! Glad I stuck to chasing geese off the runway instead...
