If Abe Were Able to Celebrate His 200th

The February 12th Chicago Tribune had a list of things Lincoln would and wouldn't like if he were still around. Steve Johnson definitely has a good sense of humor.

WHAT LINCOLN WOULD LIKE THE LEAST

** Horseless carriage named for him intended for the wealthy.

** The way everybody says "87" instead of "Four score and seven years."

** Wouldn't have been caught dead in the shoes the Lincoln Memorial has him in.

** Key lesson in Gettysburg Address--brevity--apparently lost on Ken Burns.

** Still confused about digital transition.

** A penny? Come On.

What he would like, tomorrow.

Pretty Funny Guy, That Steve Johnson. --Cooter
