Brain Teasers
First President
George Washington was America's first president, serving for two terms, and he was a very fine leader, indeed. So why is it that Washington is denied the privilege to do simple actions, such as go out to the store to buy a gallon of milk, when he was such a well-respected person?

Congrats on your first teaser, and thanks for contributing! I have great respect for any and all that put their work out for public scrutiny. I hope to see more!
Gotta say, you got me on this one. I figured milk was not sold in stores at that time (having no idea if that was true). I completely missed the sneaky verb tense!
That being said, stop repressing poor George. No one should prevent him from going for milk. He is simply unmotivated at the moment.
