Well, THIS Is Some Bullshit....

The Smithsonian lists 101 Objects That Made America, from its own collection.  Of course I am calling "Bullshit" on this whole thing since my live-blogging the wedding of the century whilst here in America did not make it, but fuck it, you might still enjoy it.

Meanwhile, here's the original laptop, courtesy of Thomas Jefferson:

“Politics as well as Religion has its superstitions,” the third president wrote of his cherished desk. “These, gaining strength with time, may, one day, give imaginary value to this relic, for its association with the birth of the Great Charter of our Independence.” Jefferson was only 33 when he authored the Declaration at this mahogany laptop of his own design, which was constructed by his landlord. He used it for nearly 50 years.
