I'm upstairs at Cafe Vita right now. Across the street, in the Havana parking lot, there are a half-dozen people dressed up as George Fucking Washington, powdered wigs and everything, most of them smoking pipes. I didn't think much of it until two of the founding fathers broke off and pulled a VERY LARGE, FULL, AND APPARENTLY HEAVY GARBAGE BAG OUT OF A DUMPSTER. Then they loaded into a windowless white van, which drove away. Then they dispersed in different directions.I can only imagine it was the body of Benedict Arnold.
Can someone in SLOG land explain what I and the other Vita eyewitnesses just saw?
I cannot explain this, Mr. Hickey. Nor can I explain this painting that I just found online:

It's a relevant photo: Cleary there is time travel involved here. My friend Jim said via Twitter:
@matthickey time traveling historical figures are fighting a battle of historic/futuristic proportions on the mean streets of 2009 Seattle.
He must be correct. I can't conceive of anything else.

@5, 7, 8: Why the hate, haters? It's easy to make fun when you're posting anonymously, isn't it?
I for one want to know what's going on with thw Washingtons.

Didn't the Stranger report on a large group of Abraham Lincolns out drinking just about this time last year?

I am wearing a George Washington wig now, and just searched about George Washington, and here I am...
I wonder if there is a photo out there somewhere of the army of George Washington clones; it would be cool to see them, even if it's only a few of them together.
Multiple George Washingtons sounds cool!
