What are you doing then, a Stonewall Jackson imitation?  You forget, I'm
smack dab in the middle of his old stomping grounds, with a statue of him
on the courthouse lawn.

OK - quick and without looking at any pictures...how many of the horses
legs from the statue are on the ground?
3 I believe.

wikipedia.org shows all 4

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stonewall_Jackson

but I bet you'll look the next time you drive by the statue
Do you think there may be more than one statue?

of course...and the one pictured is in Manassas which I gather is not
the one that Gene is referring to.

There is a custom that you aren't aware of, that the statue of a
soldier, the number of feet/legs on the ground tells how he died but
it's a fuzzy rule at best...

http://www.snopes.com/military/statue.asp

And snopes points out it is "False". So, not sure why you'd want to point anyone to a place that counters your assertion that there is such a custom.

Little trivia that your corner of the blue marble might have missed

Ahhh....see above.  Another marble needs attention.  :-)
