It's story time.
This is a story about our founding fathers. (It's not really. But kylie_bivens can get really pushy, and this is what comes of that.)
It used to be tradition that when these men would all get together in Portugal, they'd go pottery shopping together. (What I mean is that they would go, as a group, to buy pottery from local places.)
Then one year, all of that changed.
Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and John Hancock had all moved on to other things, leaving Alexander Hamilton in charge of things. He was pretty good at what he did, but then one day, when the time for shopping for pottery rolled around, he invited an Indian to come along.
Now we all know how our founding fathers feel about liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all peoples, including the indigenous ones, but a tradition amongst a group of guys should stay amongst that group of guys and Alex's suggestion got vetoed, especially by Maddy (James Madison, for those of you not in the know), who thought there wouldn't be room in the van-- I mean, the wagon.
Alex almost pouted for a while, but then someone bought him a pot and gave him a flavored slushi and he was happy again.
This now concludes our historic story.
