The Beacon of Honor - Awakens Our Flag to Inform and Inspire Patriotic Citizens

On Tuesdays, we try for a 2-fer that makes you Think & Laugh.
So now, think...
... Who Am I?:

[ =public domain image ]

- I am one of the 'Sons of Liberty.'
- I was born in Massachusetts and later became its first Governor in 1780.
- I ran a very profitable shipping business in Boston, and I used my wealth to support the fight against the Brits during the Revolutionary War.
- From 1775 to 1777, when the Declaration of Independence was created, I was the president of the Second Continental Congress.
So, do you know yet, 'Who Am I?"

-I am the most well known signer of the Declaration of Independence.
Yes, that's right, I am ...
John Hancock

We made you think, so now you get to
Laugh:

What kind of tea did the American colonists thirst for?…
(... think about it...)

Liberty! ("Liber-tea")
