in washington d.c.

got to see some cool things at the smithsonian museum today .we saw the bill of rights, the puffy pirate shirt from seinfeld and the declaration of independence , which i kept pronouncing "the decoration of independence". what was funny was the people i was talking to didnt correct me . the funniest moment of the day was when i approached the security guard that was guarding the constitution and asked her "what is the constitution?". she thought for a moment and said "i forgot what they call it,i dont know what it is". i thought it was funny that she guarded something 8 hours a day 5 days a week and never knew what it was , and never thought about it.
i learned some things today. after the movie "national treasure" the smithsonian had to change their security procedures. the movie was accurate about that and some other things.the magna carta was found on the back of a painting that was bought by ross perot in 1984. after examining the painting he found the only copy of the magna carta that exists in the U.S. .lucky him
