For my Rollyo custom search I would like to have these sites included:. With help, I was able to transfer my information from Rollyo onto my blog. Tuesday, July 10, 2007. WEEK 5 THING 11. My all time favorite job in the library is to recommend books to the customers. WEEK 5 THING 10. Originally uploaded by brownr83. Monday, July 2, 2007.

Now scrolling: The Gettysburg Address. Wednesday, December 23, 2009. Merry Christmas from Bill Sherman. As the holidays approach, be grateful it isn. 8217;t Christmas, 1864. William Sherman’s army was making its march through Georgia, living off plantations, burning them and twisting railroad ties so that they could never be used by the Confederacy again. Sherman knew how crucial the railroad connections were in Georgia. To learn how high that cost really was, read. General Sherman’s Christmas. And if yo...

LincolnFreak: October 2007
http://lincolnfreak.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Now scrolling: The Gettysburg Address. Saturday, October 13, 2007. Lincoln's opinions of his own looks were self-effacing enough. Once during a campaign, when accused of being two-faced, Lincoln remarked "if I had two faces, do you think I'd be wearing this one? But what did others think of Lincoln's face? Adjutant-General James B. Fry remarked: "His expression in repose was sad and dull; but his ever-recurring humor, at short intervals, flashed forth with the brilliancy of an electric light.". Could Mod...

Laquo; Week Seven, Thing Sixteen. Week Eight, Thing Eighteen. Week Seven, Thing Seventeen. July 17, 2007. This was a real learning experience! I’d never used a Wiki before, and it turns out it’s really easy! I just did a minor edit to the Sandbox Wiki, but it was a lot of fun. I also added my blog to the list, which was also very easy to do. Hmm… maybe I’ll register with Wikipedia and share my extensive knowledge of, um, I dunno, the works of Edith Piaf or something.

LincolnFreak: January 2008
http://lincolnfreak.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Now scrolling: The Gettysburg Address. Friday, January 18, 2008. Douglass and King: What if they had traded places? On this weekend celebrating Martin Luther King, Jr’s birthday, one wonders what things would have been like if King and Frederick Douglass had traded places. What if King had lived during the Civil War and been the one to advise Lincoln on matters of equal rights and emancipation? Would his thinking have been any different from Douglass’s? But what about Douglass? Interesting that these two...
