George Washington in a box. ARE YOU KIDDING!?

My latest postings seem to be much, much less on the paranormal/weird side but sometimes I just can't help but share something! Like the following photo, for instance.

NCAA, Martin Luther King Day, South Carolina 2011

I won't say much about this except that NCAA - what were you thinking?

George Washington, our first president - in a box? Really?

... Really? To make things worse, G.W. has been similarly covered for the past four years at the same event.

Some things get me so annoyed/worked up/dumbfounded. This is one of those things. In honor of this ridiculous act of disrespect, I will usher in a new type of post, which will fall under the weird AND annoying/what!? what!? category and I will title them "ARE YOU KIDDING!?" posts.
