The column riffs on a Newsweek tale of Kissinger in Amman riding a royal helicopter with King Hussein and quipping he'd rather walk. It recalls Lincoln anecdotes, Sandburg notes on invented Lincoln stories, and a brief note about Lincoln, Illinois being named for the president. The piece ends with a quirky non sequitur about a home grown tomato.
