Randall Munroe, of the excellent web comic xkcd, has re-written President Washington's farewell address, published in 1796 in contemporary language. The themes still seem highly relevant, especially in Munroe's accessible language. These days, bumping into the writings of founding fathers often seems powerfully prescient; they were strikingly smart guys.

As Munroe says in his post: "Wow. That was fun, depressing, inspiring, and a little bit spooky."

Mr. Washington, take it away.
