Ran across this ad for a sweeeet John Wilkes Booth monogrammed iPhone case on my Facebook. But shouldn't this be on display at Ford's Theater or the Surratt House or some-such??

Well shoot, my attachment didn't attach! Oh well lol


   

I know there must be a market for such-but, really?

Well, I mean, the initials don't actually stand for John Wilkes Booth. It was just an ad for an iPhone case that happened to have the initials JWB on it and I thought it was kind of coincidental/funny. Like it was the case that John Wilkes Booth used for his iPhone, and that's why it should be on display somewhere. Really, NOBODY thought that was funny??? lol

Wow. I took it as a serious thing. Sorry about that!

Oh it’s ok. I find humor in a lot of things, but I guess this one didn’t hit the mark with as many people as I thought it would lol

I enjoyed the humor.

In addition, did you know the computer HAL in the movie, 2001: A Space Oddessy, really stood for Honest Abe Lincoln?

I didn't see it until now, sorry. But if he had a iPhone, don't you think he could at least called Dr. Mudd to let him know he was coming?

Yeah that does make so much more sense. It seems like the entire escape would have been much smoother if they had just coordinated everything using iMessage or something like that. But then again it could have been dangerous. Can you imagine what might have happened if Booth forgot to mute his phone and his Hail to the Chief ringtone started blaring at the wrong time??
