Its somebody's birthday!

So 300 years ago today Benjamin Franklin was born. I idolized Franklin when I was a kid. I especially liked the fact that he was self taught. I remember being in school about 1987 or so, and having to write a rap about a founding father. I rapped about Benjamin Franklin. I don't remember a single lyric. Public education at its best, folks.

As a teenager, I think I was more impressed with his inventions than his statesmanship.

I think after I write this I will go watch that Disney Short Ben and Me which tells the story of all his best Ideas coming from a little mouse friend that sounds like Sterling Holloway.

And lets hear it for Taking Old Women to Bed instead of Young.

That's right, bitches. We KNOW what's UP, if you know what I mean. ::nudge nudge:: I'm no Fred Flinstone, but I will make your Bedrock!

Bring on to me the 18 year old horney as fuck boys, and I will show you broken and battered drooling beings by the time I am done. Picking my teeth with a tooth pick!

Gotta love our founding fathers.

Sorry. It was an oppertunity I couldn't pass up.

Thank you father of the self help book.

That is hysterical! Now he just needs to convince the older women to have affairs with younger men.

I love his autobiography (the parts I've read). He was great. Very anal and lecherous, but funny.

You would think that by the last point, a young man bedding an older woman would not be difficult, after all they would be so grateful!

From what I hear, he was quite the lecherous one. Someone to emulate in all regards I guess.

I can really see his point about older women. Not that I get around or anything, but I think young women hold less and less interest for me, and the more mature women are the more appealing.
