William Henry Harrison was not only the 9th President of the United States, he served the shortest term of all the presidents. Harrison died in office after only 32 days due to complications from pneumonia.
 
I did know that. I know all kinds of shit about American presidents. Can name them forward and backwards with all kinds of related facts tossed in.

I know a lot more about American Presidents than Canadian Prime Ministers.

Do you know who the only President was to serve non-consecutive terms? And do you know who was president between those terms?

This is the kind of shit that is rattling around in my brain.
 
Oh you like a "Did you know?" You have come to the right rodeo.

Grover Cleveland was the president who served non-consecutive terms. Between his terms, the president was Benjamin Harrison who was the grandson of the aforementioned William Henry who cacked in such an untimely fashion.

Benjamin made it the full four years.
 
The smallest President was James Madison (Presidential term 1809-17). The fourth President, Madison stood 5 feet, 4 inches (163 centimeters) tall and weighed less than 100 pounds (45 kilograms)

William Taft started the tradition of the Presidential "first pitch" of baseball season. The event took place on April 4, 1910, during an opening day game between the Washington Senators and the Philadelphia Athletics.

Since Taft's first pitch, every President but one has opened at least one baseball season during their tenure. The exception: Jimmy Carter (1977-1981)

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (the 32nd president) was a fifth cousin of Theodore Roosevelt (the 26th president). Genealogists have determined that FDR was distantly related to a total of 11 U.S. presidents, 5 by blood and 6 by marriage: Theodore Roosevelt, John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Ulysses Grant, William Henry Harrison, Benjamin Harrison, James Madison, William Taft, Zachary Taylor, Martin Van Buren, and George Washington.

Nice one, kato. Most interesting thing I've heard in a while.
 
If Obama were to be cannibalize it would require his calorie count be presented first according to the new Obama Care program. When the program is fully implemented every food service provider regardless of food type will be mandated to provide published/printed and on display nutritional facts.

So like a pizza shop such as Domino's says there are approximately 34 million combinations and each and every combination will have to be printed out for the consumer.

Obama's own number say this will require over 14 million man hours a year just to update this annually.

So guess what this means to you the consumer? Yep, that pizza will still be there in 30 minutes or less but it's gonna cost you twice to tree times to price. That Dollar Menu at McDonald's will be a thing of the past.

America is fat, no arguments there. Most of us have poor diets, I'm guilty as anyone. It's one thing for initiatives to better educate and inspire even but it is completely another thing for the Government to use it's power to force change.
 
Did you know Juscelino Kubitschek, President of Brazil in the 1950s, ordered the construction of the city of Brasilia to make it the new capital of the country. It wasn't an established town or settlement that grew, it was completely erected and planned from wilderness. Now it stands as the world's biggest city by population that didn't exist at the start of the 20th century.

Juscelino Kubitschek is the best President in Brazilian history.
