Happy Birthday, George Washington!

Edited: If memory serves, George Washington would be 275 years old today.

I believe he would be 275.

Not quite. If he were 208, he would have been born in 1799, which makes him a *very* precocious pre-infant.

Corrected. I had recorded the year of his death in my Palm rather than the year of his birth. Thanks!

Yup, I had originally noted the year of his death in my Palm rather than the year of his birth. My records have been corrected. I'll apologize to George personally when/if I see him next.

Heheheheh. By the way, the Current George W. was at Mount Vernon on Monday and claimed to have been channeling Washington's greatness.

It is to laugh.

Today is also Edward Gorey's birthday. In his honor let's all go get assaulted by bears...

Or hide in the corner, curled into a fetal position praying for the madness to end.
