George Washington Isn't Worth Much | Eastern North Carolina Now

    If you don't want to know the answer, don't ask the question. That is why I'm not going to email every person in the Good Ole USofA to find out how many of them know who George Washington was. I don't want to know the answer.

    It is really sad that my fellow Americans might not know who Ole George was. It is even sadder to contemplate how many of them might think he was related to George Brett or George Harrison or George Clooney or George of the Jungle.

    Remember a few blog posting back (See Lagniappe Below) when I told you about how Already Been Chewed Chewing Gum Chewed by Gene Simmons had been auctioned off for $246,602? It obvious to me that Ole George can't hold a candle to Mr. Simmons.

    Christie's Auction House recently offered a Rare Document Signed by George Washington Proclaiming Thanksgiving a National Holiday and no bid was offered for this awesome piece of history.

    As I said in the Subject above... George Washington Isn't Worth Much.

    On the other hand, if any of the Georges cited above (except Ole George) had chewed and spit out a piece of Thanksgiving Turkey Meat and Christie's had offered it for auction, that once juicy morsel probably would have caused quite a bidding frenzy.

    Would I kid u?
