Albany, NY -- A Feast Fit for a President

I've been reading way too much about American history lately. From Wikipedia:

In 1909, President Taft's lavish thanksgiving banquet featured a roasted horse, stuffed with an ewe, stuffed with a goat, stuffed with a swan, stuffed with a piglet, stuffed with a capon, stuffed with a grouse, stuffed with a squib, stuffed with a pate of field thrushes.

Mmmm... stuffing...

Albany, NY -- Was Teddy Roosevelt Gay?

So insinuates Wikipedia:

Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. (October 27, 1858 - January 6, 1919), also known as Cocksmoker, T.R. and to the public as Teddy, was the 26th President of the United States (1901-1909).

Edit: OK, it's gone now, but it really was there two minutes ago. I wish I'd taken a screenshot. Keep an eye on the article.

I don't post for a week, and this is what i post...
