If you celebrate Washington's Bday with cherry pie for legend that he "could not tell a lie" when he confessed to chopping down his father's cherry tree, have it à la mode because ice cream was his ACTUAL favorite dessert!

"All that distinguishes man as an intelligent and accountable being, is equally true of woman; and if that government is only just which governs by the free consent of the governed, there can be no reason in the world for denying to woman the exercise of the elective franchise.."

"More battles and skirmishes in the War of Independence took place in NJ than any other state. [NJ's] role in the [Amer Rev] is story that has not been fully told, its historic sites underutilized and in need of a fix."
