Missy, FDR’s Secretary; John, Lincoln’s Secretary.

Missy: “John, do you have the list? Is Jimmy finally on it?”

John: “Jimmy’s still hangin’ in there, so I’ve got 40 on my list.”

Missy: “They like gathering at Abe’s place and seeing George’s obelisk.”

John: “Teddy says George’s shaft…never mind.”

Missy: “Everyone’s coming, even James. Finally, a President ranked worse than he is.”

John: “If Donald’s found guilty this week, there will be a ginormous roar of joy.”

Missy: “Second only to what we heard after Barack was elected. Did you see the tears in Abe’s eyes?”

John: “With death comes wisdom.”
