Assuming I have power tomorrow…
Who should I do?
Two people jump out at me from the birthday list…
- John Adams (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Founding Father and second President of the United States, John Adams
or
- The Best of Grace Slick (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Jefferson Airplane lead singer Grace Slick.
Both, believe it or not, are direct descendants of people who came over on the Mayflower… go figure.
OK voting starts NOW…. I’ll check in tomorrow morning (Sandy permitting) and write the bioBlog on the person YOU pick*.
So are you Team Adams or Team Slick?

My vote is John Adams, although both have likely been high in Holland.

It is also the greatest footballer of all times birthday-Diego Maradona 52.. I vote for John Adams though. What an interesting figure.

Oh, Pinche Maradona! Hell yeah!
One of his plays-I’m hooked.

I vote for John Adams. How could you go wrong with a founding father and our 2nd president a week away from election day. I really fell in love with him when I saw John Adams (the mini-series) or maybe it was Paul Giamatti.

Wow – that’s a tough choice in different times. Seeing how it is a week from Election Day though, my choice is John Adams.

Well, my fellow Americans (and “World Wide WordPress-ians”) the votes are in and the power is on (for now). WordPress responders voted 100% for John Adams; Facebook responders voted 100% for Grace Slick.– Is that a barometer for our culture or what?– There were more WordPress respondents so John Adams it is. Thank you for doing your civic duty and voting.

p.s. Hanspostcard would also like to remind us that football great Diego Maradona shares this birthday too.

I vote for me. Its my birthday this month and Im a direct descendant of people come over on the Mayflower.
If I keep reading this and writing, and you write up on me you will have been the first to spot the greatness.

This or John

Your wish is my command. John Adams it is… With a special birthday wish going out to WaywardSpirit, Mr. Maradona and Grace Slick. Enjoy the bioBlogs (yes there are two parts… it was too long to put in one post.) Cheers,
