Turns out is it dubious lore from that morning in Lexington. Supposedly Reverend Jonas Clarke exclaimed this to the British when the deplorables were told to disperse and lay down their arms.
Funny how sketchy stories from one century can become reality in another. It's like the recent thread title:
Jesus Christ’s Resurrection Is Probably The Best-Documented Historical Event Ever
Or like the famous GE slogan:
We bring good things to life:
The General Electric Building (also known as 570 Lexington Avenue) is a skyscraper at the southwestern corner of Lexington Avenue and 51st Street in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. The building, designed by Cross & Cross and completed in 1931, was known as the RCA Victor Building during its construction.Light is always on the move, because now the GE HQ is at 5 Necco in Boston. That's down where the big Necco factory used to be located, but then they moved to... Revere.
It's so hard to keep up because the famous Necco factory in Revere closed a few years back. Then the next big news,
"Amazon Opens Delivery Center in Former Necco Candy Factory"
In other news, today is the anniversary of Ingenuity's first flight, demonstrating that what's old is new again. Ginny's up to 25 now, light being the 25th word of the Torah. Light (we bring good things to).
