Jan. 26th, 2011 12:20 am[January 26th is a day Griffin always thinks of as his 'birthday', though he's been around longer than that, by far. In fact, it doesn't take much for him to remember being very young and staring in wonder at French ships coming into the Lakes for the first time. Yet, that extremely frigid day in January has always stuck out, moreso that any memory prior. Even his territory date never compared to the day where he was the official 26th state. That's how he always remembered: "26th on the 26th".
Yet, it wasn't exactly such a festive day, for two very important reasons.
1. It was Arctic cold that day. In fact, the day his Constitution was signed as known as the 'Frostbitten Convention'.
2. He had just been pretty much humiliated by Ohio in all forms, including legally.
