I just heard a newscaster refer to "Ford's Theater, where Abraham Lincoln was shot."

For a moment I interpreted this to mean "where Lincoln was shot by Steven Spielberg."

I'm glad I'm not the only one who associates like that...

"Well, aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the movie?"

This is a canard.

Spielberg is way too young.

Lincoln was shot by a completely different overrated showbiz Democrat.

This fall, Lincoln is doing very well in the theater.

Historically, this has not been the case.
