The nineteenth century was a time of many great inventions and thoughts. The invention of the steamboat caused a network of rivers to spring up. Samuel Morse invented a code for telepathy. Louis Pastuer discovered a cure for rabbis. Charles Darwin was a naturalist who wrote the "Organ of the Species". Madman Curie discovered radium. And Karl Marx became one of the Marx Brothers.

To be mentioned in the same post as "1person" is a great honor. Your post will, based on previous posting history, be clearly superior to mine.

I know there was one with Lincoln already, but I thought of this as soon as I saw the contest theme.


From the blog of 4scoreFTW:
Work has been strange lately. John, the new guy, just keeps skulking around behind me whenever I am working. I think I will file a complaint with HR tomorrow.

Looks like J. Edgar forgot to turn off the webcam before making the late night rounds...
