I love this question you ask at the end: If this were to happen today, what symbols would we as a nation collectively decide to save? I think of things like the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Emancipation Proclamation. In our digital age, the need to keep physical things like paintings seems less urgent, but it would be devastating to lose those artifacts.
I worry it would end up being the WWE Championship belt and the Colonel's original recipe of eleven herbs and spices from KFC. Maybe the original recipe for Coca-Cola.
Paul Jennings has been my favorite character so far. The man fought for himself and still treated people with respect in the process, even though I wouldn't have blamed him if he didn't. He bailed Dolley Madison out of bankruptcy after he bought his own freedom from them!
