Subject: BS: Presidents Day -Hail, President Hanson! From: Ebbie Date: 19 Feb 07 - 06:19 PM This reminds me of when my daughter was very young. She came to me and asked diffidently, Mommy, I know about Santa Claus and the Easter Rabbit but - there is a Tooth Fairy, isn't there? I couldn't lie to her so I said, Well, what do you think? She moaned, Oh no. Not only was Cristopher Columbus not the first to discover America, George Washington is seated on an uncomfortabe pinnacle. sob I Didn't Learn This in School... I was aware that early days America wasn't led by one man only but I really didn't know that its leaders' service was so episodic and disjointed. |
