I would imagine that this analogy stemmed from the fact that a fence normally serves as a border between two territories. With the patriots being one territory, and the loyalists being the other, one who wouldn't claim either would be left sitting on the metaphoric fence.

In what country might a large flamboyance of flamingos have set a new record, following the animals' annual migration to feed?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Explanation:

Flamingos are native to tropical Africa, but can migrate to several regions that have salt seaweed lakes, as this environment usually contains large amounts of cyanobacteria and phytoplankton, which are the main food of these animals.

Because of this type of environment, Kenya has a large number of flamigos, who migrated to the country in search of food. This migration takes place once a year and ended up making Kenya a tourist spot for flamingos lovers.

My dearest wife,

I've been through hell and lived to tell the tale. I cannot wait to crawl back into your arms, having witnessed this... massacre...friends dying left and right, brothers screaming for help...but only the roar of the guns was heard.
It's been the largest number of casualties I've even seen in my life...and oh God... I hope no one ever sees hell like this again.
We, the Union, have somehow defeated general Lee, and stopped the invasion.
I hope to see you soon,

Yours forever, Erik
