From Sybil Bruncheon's "It's All Relative! The Theory of Alternate Universes!"...

It has been proposed that in other dimensions, our very own histories in this dimension may be similar but slightly altered in fascinating ways. For instance, it has been surmised that Abraham Lincoln might have leaned forward at just the right moment in some other dimension's Ford Theatre during a production of OUR BULGARIAN COUSIN. An actor named Thetus Chomsky through a jealous rage over a jar of gooseberry preserves, might have shot at the president but killed his wife, Mary Filbert Päerdsgeschoss, a famous Norwegian yodeler instead. Lincoln, devastated, but riding high from his victory in the Civil War, finishes a record seven terms as President of the 312 states... he marries a sheep... and retires to Key West to open a mixed-species bed & breakfast... well?... it could happen...
