Walt's birthday

Well I missed celebrating Walt Whitman's birthday. It was May 31st. Whitman was born on Long Island but I haven't been to his birthplace. I have been to the Walt Whitman mall. There are two cool things about this mall, one is that the outside is carved with lines from Whitman's poems, (although on the negative side, they just keep repeating the same few lines over and over but, hey, poetry beats advertisments any day) and the second is that there is an Apple store inside.

I CELEBRATE myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.

From Song of Myself by Walt Whitman
