My first contribution to the DU community [View all]

Last edited Thu Aug 9, 2012, 02:06 PM - Edit history (1)

I have been a long time reader at DU and decided that it was time for me to come out of the shadows.

For my first contribution I would like to present a little item I created to commemorate the 38th year anniversary of one of my least favorite president's early retirement.

Edited for fuzzy math.
