Presidential Oddities

In honor of Presidents Day I am not going to work HOORAY!!!! Instead I'm going to enlighten you all to the strange little idiosyncrasies of some of our former President. 

I found a nifty little book called Oval Office Oddities by Bill Fawcett.
It holds such gems such as
Gerald Ford was a state athlete, he was so good looking that he was on the cover of Cosmopolitan and in a Beautiful People spread in Look.
Ronald Reagan once stated that tree's caused up to 80% of pollution...he was quickly corrected.
James Garfield could simultaneously write in Latin with one hand and Greek with the other
Thomas Jefferson considered being a Supreme Court Justice more important then being President.

These and a zillion other strange and fun little facts to astound your friends at that wild Presidents Day party I know you are all going too can be found in this book. I hope you enjoy this little foray into oddness.

What weird facts do you know about our Presidents?  Do you get the day off or is your boss a meanie head?  What do you like to do with your extra day's off?
