Absolutely not. Will tell you DM, BW's hugs are to die for.

Unfortunately Carl Sandburg is dead. He, of course, was very well known and the major biographer of Lincoln. If you are familiar with Aaron Copland's A Lincoln Portrait, Sandburg was the best narrator ever and is on several recordings. One thing is that he was also a midwesterner and his speaking, especially the emphases, seems so much more realistic than an actor.

I am sure that is the case :)
Just teasing, of course. BW, (with the exception of Figment) probably hasn't caused any actual incontinence ;)

Went on Stitch's Great Escape one time and Stitch must've been VERY hot in his spacesuit, because he was having a MAJOR sweating problem...
And for those that hadn't seen the "slow-motiong fainting Abe" video mentioned earlier...
