Did you know that when campaigning for the Presidential seat (which would have resulted in his third term), Teddy Roosevelt called the then current President William Howard Taft a puzzlewit and a fathead?
I encourage you to use puzzlewit as a regular part of your vocabulary because chances are, no one has heard of it.
This blog features random postings of stories, videos, and photos from myself that will hopefully provide entertainment for all who view them.

Potbelly Sandwich Works
Potbelly located at National Harbor, MD
I highly recommend this sandwich joint to anyone who comes across it. I first discovered this chain at an airport and have been enjoying their subs ever since. Anyone I have ever recommended it to or anyone I taken to a location have really enjoyed it. There are several throughout Washington, D.C. There are over 200 stores located in the following states: Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin.

Ford's Theatre/Peterson House
If you ever get the opportunity to site see around our nation's capital, I would highly recommend stopping into Ford's Theatre on 10th Street, the place where President Lincoln was mortally shot in April 1865 by John Wilkes Booth. You can also visit the Peterson House across the street, the location where Lincoln was carried to expire. Also note that this is located very close to Fro Zen Yo so be sure to stop in there as well.

Historical Four State
There are many locations of historical significance in the four state region some of which are more obscure than others. In Winchester, Virginia alone, it boasts the original site of Fort Loudon, George Washington's Headquarters (pictured above), Stonewall Jackson's Headquarters, and Abram's Delight to just name a few. Not to mention, the city of Winchester changed hands 72 times during the Civil War.
Other locations in the area include Harper's Ferry (self explanatory), the original cabin (albeit reconstructed) of the first settler of the area Morgan Morgan, Belle Boyd's house, the location of the battle of Antietam in Sharpsburg, Maryland, the grave of Lincoln body guard Ward Lamon, etc.

Snow White Grill
The Snow White Grill is located in Old Town Winchester, VA in the outdoor mall. Here you can find delicious "belly bombers" or mini burgers. Very good and reasonably priced. This placed open in 1949 and was one of many locations in the area. Is now the only location remaining. It is especially nice to stop in for lunch while seeing some of the historical sites around Winchester (Fort Loudon, Washington's Headquarters, Stonewall Jackson's Headquarters, Civil War Museum, Abram's Delight, etc.
