    * George Washington was the first president under our current form of government, which began in 1787. The United States was born in 1781 (Articles of Confederation), so the first president was actually John Hanson.

    Good one...Any of Mr. Lincoln? I would love to have been at the original in Disneyland when one of the fluid valves broke and the audience (seeing the red liquid) thought they were reinacting his assassination! :)

    Yes, but not from Great Moments or Haircuts with Mr. Lincoln.

    The last time I went to Great Haircuts with Mr. Lincoln I didn't bring my SLR, so the chances of me getting a good picture would be like the chances the large press pool had to get a pic of Mr. Lincoln on November 19, 1863.


    Oops, I forgot, they had plenty of chances, they just underestimated the length of his speech.

    I haven't been in this "ride", (for lack of a better term at the moment) in I don't know how long. I guess I should go back in there one of these times I am there again.
