RE: President Lincoln's sense of humor

Good morning, David. You are making me laugh!

Actually there is a Lincoln quote I really like regarding folks' looks that is probably not apocryphal.

"Common looking people are the best in the world: that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them."

------Lincoln and the Civil War In the Diaries and Letters of John Hay selected by Tyler Dennett (New York, Da Capo Press, 1988), p. 143.
