Ben Franklin game

[wolf bite]

 

For those of you that did not see National Treasure, Ben Franklin had a very active life. Of all the people in history, he may very well have done the most and in different fields.

So here is the game, name something Ben Franklin did.

It can be in his very colorful private life, his active political life, his inventions and discoveries, or in business. No double posting. Lets see how long of a topic this can be.

I will go first with an easy one.

Discovered electricity with a kite and a key.


Wolf Bite

[TR Shadow]

 He invented the Franklin stove!

[Deathclaw]

 Appeared on currency.

[windhound]

 he had a print shop (I think O.o)

[RazorClaw]

 Went on a mission of embassy to the French, got their alliance during the REvolutionary War.

[Nohcnonk]

 He helped draft the Constitution.

*did a report on him last year*

[wolf bite]

 Invented the swivel chair

[The Lady Shael]

 National Treasure was an awesome movie.

Invented the bifocals.

[Nohcnonk]

 Invented glass harmonica.

Beat that. XD

[Gen. Volkov]

 Made thirty monks dance for the King of France by shocking them with electric charges. I think that wins. If not, then, he wrote Poor Richard's Almanac.

National Treasure was a good movie.. though the history behind it was a little shaky. Not as bad as "The Day After Tomorrow" though, or "The Core". *Shudder* The Core..... *Shudder*

[wolf bite]

 Playboy. Fathered an unknown number (some say 60) illegitimate children from much younger women then him. Then politacally fought for the rights of unmarried mothers.

[Nohcnonk]

 Eh.  Estabished idea for postal service.

[Juska]

 He was bald.

[The Lady Shael]

 I bet if Ben was around today, reading this would give him an awesome ego boost.

Established the library.


Oh, hey, I sort of liked the Core. Don't remember much about it, but I usually don't care if movies are accurate or not, unless they come from books, or have something to do with Latin. "Troy"...*shudders*
