    Camera Photo of the Day (Jan 30)--finally!

    Yep, I'm 2 days late gettin' this up, but better nate than lever, right?

    Franklin Delano Roosevelt's birthday was 2 days ago (born January 30, 1882). I absolutely love his Memorial in Washington DC. It's park-like with waterfalls, quotes engraved on stone walls, sculptures of his wife (Eleanor), and of him and his dog (Fala), bronze artwork, etc. It's a great place to bring a packed lunch and relax.

    speaking of misspellings...



    if you look closely at Abe Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address inside the Lincoln Memorial, the word "future" (first "column" in the middle) was originally spelled "euture" until it was fixed.

    Maybe Abe spelt it wrong himself? If so maybe they woulda chiseled "[sic]" in there, so maybe not.

    hate to say this but i'm wondering if the chiseler got a beat-down for his "mistake".
