We're watching a musical about the Declaration of Independance in history.
It is very... interesting. Not interesting as in 'fascinating' but interesting as in 'lots of 'OKAY' moments.

I must say, in this movie, John Adams is quite the annoying twit. Won't stop singing about 'Having the windows open'

And, did you know that Ben Franklin slept in the nude? We learned that, too.




















God help me.

3. Try watching it with thirty other people.
I just hand my head in shame most the time. But, it is amusing.

In the way that Plan Nine From Outer Space was amusing. Like a horrible, horrible, horrible flying-saucer-suspended-from-wires crash.

10. Our history teacher just popped it in and said, to the point of,
"You'll all like this."

I am strangely fascinated by this all.
