I read an interesting article in this mornings paper where a rare copy of the Emancipation Proclamation, signed by President Lincoln, arrived in the Oval Office for Martin Luther King Jr. Day in January and has been hanging out just above a bronze bust of King ever since, will now be moving on to an unknown destination for viewing.

For those of you who don't know any thing about the Emancipation Proclamation well I can help you out as history is a hobby of mine. The Emancipation Proclamation was a proclamation. There were these folks who wanted to be emancipated so they wrote a proclamation and they called it the Emancipation Proclamation. And I am surprised some of you didn't know that.
