Who?

We were walking down Memory Lane the other day and recalled this story.

My daughter was 3 or 4 at the time. She was sitting in the back seat of the car and I was driving.
We came to a set of lights (long) and the car was stopped on red.
She started talking about "Jim Washington".
I asked her who is he?
She said, "You know, the man on the dollar bill money."

I laughed and told her his name was George not Jim. I told her he was the first President of the United States.
She seemed so surprised yet very puzzled. Then she asks me, "Well then, who is Jim?"

I had to tell her that I did not know! but there must be a Jim Washington out there somewhere.
We later found his name in the phone book to her satisfaction.
