IS IT A RISING SUN????
In 1787 at the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin Franklin was waiting to sign the document that would hold the fate and destiny of our nation. As he stood, his eyes fell upon a carving on the back of George Washington's chair; a carving of half a sun. He stared thoughtfully at it for a minute, then announced before the delegates, "I have often...in the course of this session...looked at that...without being able to tell whether it was rising or setting; but now at length I have the happiness to know that it is a rising and not a setting sun ."
I'm hoping it's a rising sun as well. . . .
