It's Lincoln's birthday once again, and as is semi-long-standing tradition, a score or so of local men have been growing Lincolnesque beards and will celebrate tonight by dressing as their hero and getting extremely intoxicated. New this year: The Lincolns have a van (with a non-extremely-intoxicated driver), making them more mobile than ever and possibly marauding at a bar near you:

well be starting in Georgetown, making our way to alibi, can can and green room at showbox then up to [Capitol] hill around 11... We plan to hit moe bar, cha cha and havana at the end for dancing, probably around 12 or 1230...

[Spelling &etc. are not the Lincolns' strong point.]

Here is "the best photo from last year":

One would not want to run into this Lincoln in a dark alley.
