Virginia = Suicide
Well, at least in the early 1600s:
Healthy, new colonists were constantly dispatched from England to early America, but they perished almost as fast as they could be replaced. Between December 1606 and February 1625, Virginia received 7, 289 immigrants and buried 6,040 of them. Most barely had time to settle in. All but 500 of the 3,500 immigrants who arrived in the three years of 1619-1621 were dead by the end of the period. To go to Virginia was effectively to commit suicide.
From a site I found on Reddit.com, which is an awesome site to get news and such. It learns what you like based on ratings you give and spits out stuff it thinks you'd want.
I should be hearing about that job today or tomorrow. The guy told me "frankly" that I'm the top runner, pending my background check. I'm hoping my assassination career and all of those drug-running arrests don't show up.
In other news, Three-Hundredth post! Woo! I should do something special... Hmm. Maybe a picture?
And another one just for fun:
Adios!
