Is There Greatness In You?



They are just like us gentlemen (only less dignified). I heard they had a chug contests to determine the order of signing the D of I. Pictures were taken but someone had them destroyed because he was afraid of what his wife might think (meow). Below is a list of who we would have been had we signed the Declaration of Independence:



Rosco = Samuel Adams (MA) - rebel/action guy



Chag = Thomas Jefferson (VA) - writer (it's my list I get to be who I want to be)



Dancer = Benjamin Franklin (PA) - wise elder statesman/brain trust



Heff-cat = John Hancock (MA) - name was perfect - too good to pass up



Stubby = John Adams (MA) - outspoken and magnanimous (has nothing to do with stature)



Doc = Philip Livingston (NY) - "Doctor Livingston I presume?"



Stalkfleet = Richard Stockton (NJ) - name was too perfect - I think he was also a lieutenant



Hub = William Whipple (NH) - "don't squeeze the red handles" (correctly)



TP = Francis Lightfoot Lee (VA) - with a name like that he had to be good looking...



Cool Chief = Alexander Hamilton (NY) - never made it to the signing... was working at the bank instead
