This post in the awesome Boston 1775 blog brings together a number of threads. First of all, I find its simple content quite fascinating. And, of course, it also connects my love of history, the 18th century, books, Boston, and even the junction of all of these things--my first real job out of college--selling books on the corner of School and Washington Streets in Boston, across the road from the Old South Meeting House.

A really entertaining study of George Washington and an attempt to apply his code of behavior to modern life

thanks to Boston 1775 for the link (and the one to the dubious BBC article)
