Dr. Joseph Warren was weirdly good at scaling the sides of buildings like some sort of dracula lizard. There are multiple instances of him doing this including climbing up a drainpipe when his college roommates locked him out as a prank
248 years ago, today, September 9, 1774, representatives of the people of Massachusetts approved what was probably the most consequential document of the American Revolution other than the Declaration of Independence. The document, authored by Dr. Joseph Warren, was called the Suffolk Resolves.

Mugshot Monday - "Presidential Pets" coffee mug by The Unemployed Philosophers Guild with Morning Glory Signature Blend by Peace Coffee
Happy Presidents' Day to those who celebrate!
I have the day off so I'm lounging this afternoon drinking coffee in my Presidential Pets coffee mug.
It's a curated list of presidential pets who lived in the White House for 4 or 8 years depending if their owner survived re-election, or not.
When I think of presidential pets, the first one that comes to mind is "Socks", Bill and Hillary Clinton's cat. The second pet I think of is "Bo", Barack and Michelle Obama's rad dog.
I really don't know my presidential pets and I found some of the pets on the mug very interesting:
Calvin Coolidge had a racoon named Rebecca.
Thomas Jefferson had a mockingbird named Dick.
Theodore Roosevelt had guinea pigs named Admiral Dewey, Dr. Johnson, Bishop Doane, Fighting Bob Evans, and Father O'Grady.
My favorite--JFK had a pony named Macaroni!
Jimmy Carter gets the best name for a Siamese cat: Misty Malarkey Ying Yang.
Only Donald Trump, James K. Polk, and Andrew Johnson did not have a single presidential pet while they were in office. Very vary suspect, don't you think?
Here is every pet on my Presidential Pets coffee mug:
Admiral Dewey, Bishop Doane, Dr. Johnson, Father O'Grady, and Fighting Bob Evans (Theodore Roosevelt)
Barney (George W. Bush)
Bo (Barack Obama)
Dick (Thomas Jefferson)
Emily Spinach (Theodore Roosevelt)
Fala (Franklin D. Roosevelt)
Him and Her (Lyndon B. Johnson)
Jack (Abraham Lincoln)
Laddie Boy (Warren G. Harding)
Macaroni (JFK)
Major and Champ (Joseph R. Biden, Jr.)
Millie (George H. W. Bush)
Misty Malarkey Ying Yang (James Carter)
Mr. Reciprocity and Mr. Protection (Benjamin Harrison)
Old Ike (Woodrow Wilson)
Old Whitey (Zachary Taylor)
Pauline Wayne (William Howard Taft)
Polly (James Madison)
Rebecca (Calvin Coolidge)
Rex (Ronald Reagan)
Siam (Rutherford B. Hayes)
Socks (William J. Clinton)
Sweettips (George Washington)
Washington Post (William McKinley)
The mug impressively displays these 24 presidential pet illustrations and serves as a great introduction to the subject. If you'd like a more comprehensive list, check out the Presidential Pet Museum website.
Cheers to all the presidential pets! 🐕 🐈 🐎 ☕️
