While the true origins of chili are somewhat debated, who made it popular is not. Sometime after the Civil war between 1860 and 1880, chili began being sold by a group of women named “The Chili Queens”. The chili was sold with tamales and for only a dime. The first time Chili is ever mentioned in print is 1882 in Gould’s Guide to San Antonio, where he mentions that chili con carne was available all around the Military Plaza in San Antonio. There is evidence that chili con carne existed and thrived in Texas long before its first time mentioned in print, but because of interstate rail roads that began to connect San Antonio to the rest of the United States in the 1880’s, the 1880’s might have been the first time that chili con carne was spread farther than just through cattle trails in

Now the Spurs are one of of the best, if not the best, basketball franchises ever. I think that they are the best because of their consistency of winning.
The Clutter family had it all. Nancy was beautiful, Herb Clutter was an admirable and respected man in Holcomb, Kansas, and the rest of the family were all well off in their lives. It seemed that only Bonnie Clutter, with her psychiatric condition, was not absolutely thriving. The town of Holcomb was the classic community; everyone knew everyone, and there was an air of respect. At one point, Greece was, in way, the same.
Put Your Money Where Your Grill Is Golden grills have been around for quite a long time now. Specifically, somewhere between in the 80’s and 90’s due to the influence of rappers in the hip hop industry.

AZUCUS Ranch is a ranch in Vicksburg, MS where I ride horses. I have been riding there for many years, ever since I could walk. There are other riders there that have been there as long as I have.

Unlike the previous organized groups instead of adults working together against a bigger cause the Crips originated on campuses of High Schools in the Los Angeles area. Fremont High School was the home for “Eastside Crips” and the “Westside Crips”, while Compton quickly formed another fraction of Crips. Some gangs that were formed were the Rollin 20s Crips, 5 Duece Crip, Main Street Crips, and Kitchen Crip.
