Brave men who defend India. The 1.3 million strong Indian army is the third largest force in the world after China and USA.

Get the Indian giving mug.People talk about genocide like it just happens in Africa to get their focus off what happened on Indian land in the last few hundred years. Thanksgiving is the most pretentious and insincere holiday there is. People pretend to be thankful to live on Indian land, especially the white people who think they're doing the Indians a favor by decapitating a Columbus statue and protesting it.
Thanksgiving is what the people desperate to convince the Indians and everyone else they don't care what anybody thinks of them would call a holiday like Thanksgiving. People quit thanking the Indians for their land a long time ago.

Get the Indians mug.One of the coolest film heroes of all time, born in Princeton, New Jersey in 1899 (Indy not Harrison Ford), probably the best known archeologist in the world, Indy isn't official called Indiana but rather Henry Jones Jnr, but he was very fond of the family dog, Indiana so he became known as Indiana, his dad insists he is called Junior and this angers Indy as we find out in The Last Crusade, during the war he and his MI6 buddy, Hale, went on many adventures to stop the Nazis and Japanese getting sources of paranormal power, e.g in Indiana Jones and the Army of the Dead, Jones and Hale travel to Haiti to stop an army of undead! In 1947, he defeated the Babylonian god, Marduk (please play Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine) and in 1957 he went in search of his friend, Harold Oxley who had lost his marbles and ended up finding a crystal skull, which if returned gives the returner a "gift", to know everything and found he had a son (Mutt Williams a.k.a Herny Jones III), Mutt wasn't happy about this early on but it sunk in. During the 90's he still travelled, much to the opposition of his family, who thought he should settle down at nearly 100, and was a lecturer, and was willing to share stories of his youth with anyone who would listen.
a cool archeologist,
henry jones snr-we named the dog Indiana
Sallah-The dog?, you were named after a dog!?
Indiana Jones- I was very fond of that dog
Marcus Brody- Can we go home now?
(the last few lines of The Last Crusade)
