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

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...

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. :-)
