Ho Chi Minh Trail 

(VIETNAMESE HISTORY) complex network of mountain roads and trails leading from the mountain highlands west of Hanoi to the Mekong river delta. This was used by the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) between 1959 and 1975 to infiltrate the putative "Republic of Vietnam" (South Vietnam). The network had some 16,000 Km (10,000 miles) of roads.

The road was named for Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minh, leader of the Viet Minh and Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV); construction began on his birthday (9 May 1959).

The road was built at enormous sacrifice by the Vietnamese and their allies in the Lao & Khmer peasantry. During most of the Second Indochina War, it was a primary target of US bombing raids. After creating a puppet state in Saigon, the US military sealed off the 17th parallel between the two sectors of Vietnam; so PAVN forces bypassed the DMZ and cut through Laos and Cambodia. The US military thus intervened militarily in Laos (against the pro-Communist Pathet Lao) and in Cambodia (against the Khmer Communist Party, or Khmer Rouge).

The Ho Chi Minh Trail was a constant target for B-52 bombers, but bombing failed to stop traffic on it. As a consequence, the US organized the ouster of the Cambodian monarchy in 1970, so it could use the puppet junta to get permission for invading Cambodia.

The USA dropped an astonishing volume of high explosives on Cambodia in the hopes of shutting down the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

The National Liberation Front (NLF, or "Viet Cong") was supported by supplies from the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

sad trail 

A large patch of hair that grows along the lower back above one's buttocks region.

Your sad trail tends to make others unhappy.

"Faisal and Akram marveled at the sight of Michael's sad trail in Dykstra's common bathroom. They became unhappy and urged him to wax."

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead

a rock band from Texas
often simply called "Trail of Dead"
a very good band and in my opinion the hope of alternative rock, a genre that suffered so much in the past few years.
they got everything: musical talent and the jolly good ambitions to bring variety into every album, cool lyrics, stylish artworks and on stage they simply ROCK! make sure to be there if they are around for a show.

i simply like ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead - although first i thought they play some emo crap. but then i listened to them!

Seattle Slug Trail 

The thick and slimy trail left on your chest by a woman's vagina. While pushing an eager woman off your face......and down your torso

Julie tried to climb up onto my face and have me eat her pussy, but as I pushed her away she left a Seattle Slug Trail on my chest.

Hiking the Appalachian Trail 

A poorly executed secret tryst - that isn't a secret to anyone.

It is a reference to the disappearance of South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford who "disappeared" for a week to Argentine on a romantic escapade. His staff and office told the news media that he was "hiking the Appalachian trail."

Dave needs to take a break from hiking the Appalachian trail with his secretary and get some work done!

happy trail 

1. The line of pubic hair which extends from the belly button to the pubic region.

2. The hair that always gets caught in my belt buckle when I stand up, often causing terrible pain.

Ouch! My happy trail got caught in my belt buckle.
