145th anniversary of Lincoln assassination

Honest Abe was shot and killed by a Ben Affleckish mutha 145 years ago today -- practically to the minute.
By chance, this week I started reading the amazing book, "Manhunt," which details the whole saga, including the chase to capture Booth and a whole bunch of other stuff I never knew or forgot about. This guy's blog has a good rundown of the shooting.

Did I just coin the term "Affleckish?" Oops.
