Lincoln!
Published Aug 15, 2003
A father noticed that his son was spending way too much time playing computer games. In an effort to motivate the boy to focus more attention on his schoolwork, the father said to his son, "When Lincoln was your age, he was studying books by the light of the fireplace."
The son replied, "But Dad, when Lincoln was your age, he was President of The United States!"
