How the Presidents Died...

How the Presidents Died....

This stupid site is the second item that comes up when somebody searches "How Presidents Died" on Google....

I like to think that there's some kid in the fifth grade out there, searching for information on something along the lines of how William McKinley died...or perhaps the line of succession for the Presidency....

And that kid is going to school saying that 12 of our presidents died of syphilis, and that poultergeist killed Andrew Jackson....

I also like that this thing stayed posted for four years (or however long) and I only just now saw that I'd mistakenly listed Andrew Johnson as the seventh president of the USA....

What a cad....
