I love Alexander Hamilton as much as the next person (ok, maybe much much more) but I was a little disappointed in the American Experience documentary that was on last night. The acting was great (the guy who played Hamilton had great facial expressions) but I thought it presented Hamilton in an altogether too favorable light. They seemed to be trying to make the case that he should be more respected as one of the Founding Fathers and he should but the guy was no saint.

To my eternal joy I was reminded that Alex's wife was named BETSY (well, Eliza or Betsey). Of course, he cheated on her endlessly and I am absolutely sure that Alexander and I would not have gotten along but it was still fun to hear her name mentioned.
