Name That General!

"But what was Stonewall Jackson's first name?"

"Andrew."

"No, I'm pretty sure that was the president. I mean the general who sat on his horse sucking lemons."

"It was Peter, wasn't it? Peter Jackson."

"That's what I'm going to name my sons - Mason and Dixon."

"And Lee."

"General and Colonel."

"Jackson. Stonewall Jackson."

*some minutes later, on Wikipedia*

"See! They're not the same person! Andrew Jackson is on the $20. I was talking about the Civil War General, Thomas Jonathan 'Stonewall Jackson."

"Are you reading Wikipedia? Automatically discredited. His real name was Andrew Thomas Jonathan Stonewall Jackson."
