Abraham Lincoln Impersonators Gather At Convention In Ohio

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- John Cooper's obsession with being Abraham Lincoln began one score and five years ago. Its beginnings were humble.

Tall, lean and bearded, the Ohio man already bore a passing resemblance to the Rail Splitter, or so he was told. One Halloween he donned a frock coat he found in his mother's attic, and his wife fashioned a stovepipe hat out of cardboard. A little spray paint on his beard, and he was ready for trick or treat with the kids.

He was so convincing that before long he was invited to come to schools in costume around Presidents Day. Then people started paying him to show up at their events in character to talk about the 16th president.

The rest is history.

But honestly, this is a huge weekend for the 62-year-old Cooper, who is helping to host a gathering of impersonators of the Great Emancipator in Columbus.

ASK ME ABOUT VISITING PROSTITUTES IN CHINA AND FEELING NO SHAME. MY FRIEND IS SERIOUSLY THE (PATHETIC) YODA OF PAYING WOMEN TO TOUCH HIS (AND MY) DICK. THEY WOULDN'T DO IT OTHERWISE.
He was headed that way but I think the big budget Lincoln movie took the fun out of the growing meme and vampire slayer stories. Lincoln fanatics would be a pretty cool thing to see plus it encourages the thin.

The Lin Con is when your internet hype train fools a team into making you starting point guard.

I wanted to make a Jeremy Lin joke like 8 hours ago when I first saw this thread, just so everyone knows I thought of it first.

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
I'd rather go to a Chaka Khan convention called Chaka con.

I like Lincoln's beard because a little girl asked him to grow it and it put a charlatan out of work
