[color=#ff40ff]Yesterday was Abraham Lincoln's birthday. ... I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT A DEAD PRESIDENT'S BIRTHDAY. :cry: Fun fact: Lincoln was born in Nolin Creek, Kentucky. He didn't come to Illinois until he was about 20. (although I'm unsure of his age... someone correct me plz ;_; ) Lincoln grew up in Indiana, he just got his start in politics in Illinois. He was also the reason why Illinois's capital is Springfield, and not Vandalia. And before Vandalia was the capital of Illinois, Kaskaskia was the capital. I forgot why they ditched the first state capital though... XDD Gaaaah. I'd get out my Illinois history book buuuut I can't find it now. YES I ACTUALLY HAVE ONE OF THOSE shut up. O_o Haha you just got a brief lesson in Illinois history. HAHAHAHA. TAKE THAT. OOOOH SNAPZ.[/color]
