I like the part about how the Continental Congress sat there from this time to that time...except this one time...and this other time...and then when we were occupied. But other than that, they were there the whole time!


I'm all for the Founding Fathers, though. Except it would have been nice if they had included women and brown people in their founding.

Wryter:

(1)I wonder if the average college graduate knows why the capitol moved from Philadelphia to Washington D.C.
(2)I wonder if the average college graduate knows the capitol was once in Philadelphia.
(3) I wonder if the average college graduate knows where the capitol is now.

1. Less congestion at the airports, and closer to the Washington Monument??

2. You think they'd have been tired enough from moving that big building all the way from New York!

3. Um. Can you repeat the question.

So by Leezer's I am an exceptional recent college graduate who is brilliant/possibly a member of MENSA because I know my US History. Thank God for that one time I read a book in Washington, DC. Talk about killing two birds with one stone.
