| | | The PB Came to Mind, but why???
I can't for the life of me figure out why I was reminded of the PB, but for some reason I was. I was listening on TV tonight to Neil Diamond singing at Boston. They went to a commercial, when they came back they introduced a special tribute to be done by the Boston Pops, a special tribute to our 16th President, Abraham Lincoln, probably one of our most beloved presidents...
For some reason, at that moment, the PB came to mind.
Weird, huh? Why would the PB come to mind of all things???

Maybe its because of the occasional "Lincoln Loathing" that happens here. When they described Lincoln as beloved, you thought of all the replies that statement would garner.

I'll admit that I prefer Lincolns to Cadillacs, but that's as far as I'l go- although I'd be happier if they renamed the mark Lees or Jacksons.
