Once there were four lads . . . John [Hancock], Paul [Revere], George [Washington], and Ben [Franklin].

Oh yes, there was also Tom [Jefferson], but he was annoyingly independent and hardly ever around. These lads were always getting into trouble for one reason or another. In other words, they took a few . . . liberties. And to be honest, they were not always appreciated. This is the story of five little lads before they became five really big Founding Fathers.
