On this date in 1865, in a meeting marked by quiet dignity and mutual respect, Ulysses S. Grant received the surrender of Robert E. Lee at Appomattox, ending the Civil War.
"Couldn't even clean your fucking boots, huh?" Lee asked.
"The better to kick an old slaver's ass," came Grant's warm reply.

old Soviet joke for our times:
Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.
Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”
Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”
Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”
