On This Day In History

 Tommy Jefferson and the other framers of America's Declaration of Independence, took a little break from their exhausting work of crafting the proper wording to inform Britain's King George III to kindly and I quote here, "fuck off, eh!" That is exactly and historically correct. So Tommy and the white boys of means head to a local tavern, and I believe the name of that aforementioned tavern was 'Moe's'. That hardly matters now being so long after the fact. Anyway, the framers headed for the tavern and after several stout pints of Guinness the boys were feeling a mite rowdy. After much polite conversation, good natured ribbing, and inquires as to when the next slave sale might be, they sorted out the pecking order for who gets to sign where on their historic 'declaration' from England and where to establish safe houses for after the 'Declaration' gets delivered to ole King George. King George should not be confused with ole King Cole. Back in the day, the signers of America's Declaration of Independence were considered to be "traitors" to the holy if not blessed 'Mother England' and treason could get one hung by the neck until dead or shot on sight or drawn and quartered. Be sure to google up the proper procedure for being 'drawn and quartered'. Damn messy to be sure. Anyway, after much raucous bullshit and miscellaneous other founding fathers antics the signers went back to their hotel rooms and fell soundly asleep. The very next morning being July 4, 1776 and with the framers of the Declaration being more than a little hungover, they signed the document, made arrangements to send it off to Britain's Parliament and King George. There was much groaning and heading to the apothecary, that's what the drug stores were called back in those days, for aspirin and tincture of opium that would cure their pounding and hung over heads. Back in those days aspirin and tincture of opium were common remedies for any number of maladies. So there you go. History as it actually happened. Or not. I am after all just making shit up as I hammer the bejesus out of my keyboard. Happy Holiday everyone and now we'll move on to the machine art with the stuff having already been stuffed. I'm prone to considering myself 'the' historian for the ass-out people. Yup. Machine and CGI artistry -
