LincolnFreak: Merry Christmas from Bill Sherman
http://lincolnfreak.blogspot.com/2009/12/merry-christmas-from-bill-sherman.html
Now scrolling: The Gettysburg Address. Wednesday, December 23, 2009. Merry Christmas from Bill Sherman. As the holidays approach, be grateful it isn. 8217;t Christmas, 1864. William Sherman’s army was making its march through Georgia, living off plantations, burning them and twisting railroad ties so that they could never be used by the Confederacy again. Sherman knew how crucial the railroad connections were in Georgia. To learn how high that cost really was, read. General Sherman’s Christmas. And if yo...

LincolnFreak: October 2007
http://lincolnfreak.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Now scrolling: The Gettysburg Address. Saturday, October 13, 2007. Lincoln's opinions of his own looks were self-effacing enough. Once during a campaign, when accused of being two-faced, Lincoln remarked "if I had two faces, do you think I'd be wearing this one? But what did others think of Lincoln's face? Adjutant-General James B. Fry remarked: "His expression in repose was sad and dull; but his ever-recurring humor, at short intervals, flashed forth with the brilliancy of an electric light.".

Laquo; Week Seven, Thing Sixteen. Week Eight, Thing Eighteen. Week Seven, Thing Seventeen. July 17, 2007. This was a real learning experience! I’d never used a Wiki before, and it turns out it’s really easy! I just did a minor edit to the Sandbox Wiki, but it was a lot of fun. I also added my blog to the list, which was also very easy to do. Hmm… maybe I’ll register with Wikipedia and share my extensive knowledge of, um, I dunno, the works of Edith Piaf or something.

LincolnFreak: February 2008
http://lincolnfreak.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Now scrolling: The Gettysburg Address. Friday, February 22, 2008. Son of the Republic, Look and Learn". Today is Washington’s birthday. Most people know that Lincoln had dreams predicting the future, including his own assassination. But not many people realize that Washington had premonitions as well, and one very strange vision at Valley Forge about three great wars that would overtake America. Did the vision really happen? Labels: Look and Learn. Son of the Republic. Sunday, February 17, 2008. Thanks t...

LincolnFreak: Behold the Tecumseh Curse
http://lincolnfreak.blogspot.com/2009/04/behold-tecumseh-curse.html
Now scrolling: The Gettysburg Address. Saturday, April 4, 2009. Behold the Tecumseh Curse. So you don’t believe in curses. Consider this one. Every president elected in a zero year between 1840 and 1960 has died in office, some by assassination. Lincoln was one of these. What’s so strange about this? Supposedly, Tecumseh’s brother Tenskwatawa, also known as the Prophet, set a curse against Harrison and future White House occupants who became president with the same end number as Harrison.
