we have only known in such stark black and white terms. and thanks to michael beschloss and his always educational twitter feed, this week he has posted photos of, for starters, everything that was in the president's pockets the night of his assassination at ford's theater. a photo of lincoln at his very tiny desk. a photo of abraham lincoln's slippers. but what got our attention from michael were the two rejected designs for the lincoln memorial. one with his statue on top of it and another full-on pyramid. think of how that would have changed the view in washington for all of these years. and with that, let us give thanks for the beauty and the majesty of the memorial that we have. a fitting memorial for the president we lost, the man who was born 210 years ago today.
