How many of you noticed, or celebrated yourselves, Lee's birthday on 19 January (or Stonewall Jackson's on 21 January)?

I'm saving my energy for the big one. William T. Sherman's birthday is on February 8th.

As much as it pains me, a die-hard southerner, to say this... I do wish ol' General Sherman were around today. I have a feeling that the Middle East would be a whole different place right now if they'd him run the WOT.

Well, if you are a lover of genocide, you should celebrate Sherman's birthday. While he possessed a very sharp military mind, Sherman also tried to decimate and destroy the American Indians of the western plains. His one regret was that he did not kill them all.

Ah, the spawn of satan's birthday is but four days after mine.. no wonder i thought there was something dubious about that day, considering some dumb person on their cell phone totaled my car on that day last year..
