If at the moment you are thinking "What the deuce are they on about?", have no fear!! Or start having a lot of fear, which will most likely be the case, but here is an explanation of what this whole historical hotties nonsense is. It all started last year in our AP US history class...

Someone had a ten dollar bill in class and we were learning about good ole' Alex Hamilton at the time, and an offhand remark was made about how hot he was. It got a few laughs and became our joke du jour. Then on my trip to Virginia, I made the comment in my trip diary that I'd seen no hot guys, unless one counted sexy sexy Alexander Hamilton in the money exhibit. This rejuvinated the joke and we began reffering to hot guys as "Hamiltons".

Then being our geeky selves, specifically our history loving geeky selves, we began finding other historical hotties amongst the pages of our history books and online. And the rest was history. (hahahahahahahahahahahaha!! history, get it?)

So this is a joke...mostly. Just have a laugh all right? Toodles!
