Founding Hotties

According to this morning's Washington Post, Martha Washington was hot, and George was kind of a hunk.

I kid you not. They know this because of science.

That's... kind of hilarious. Of course, I don't really know what her historical significance is beyond marrying Washington, but it's still amusing that they're doing this!

Ahahhhha... that's brilliant.

BTW, I love your journal header. So adorable.

I read a few books about her when I was little and they always portrayed her as a very capable and admirable lady. But I don't think they mentioned the purple shoes.

Hee. It made me laugh when I went to read the paper and that was right on top of the homepage. :)

She was the first First Lady, which is historically significant... but obviously connected to her marrying Washington. I honestly don't know lots about her, but she's usually a grandmotherly figure.

And quite an awesome pair of shoes they were. And I guess you had better biographies than some of the ones they talked about in the article, cause those historians didn't seem like big fans.

It's not so often there are fun history articles in the news!

Thanks! abarero made it for me to feed the Bones obsession.

So that just proves that not only are kids better than adults, but people who write non-fiction for kids are better than people who write non-fiction for adults! :D

Maybe they've got less to prove, it ends up turning out better?
