DESCRIPTION:
Faced with the choice, George Washington actually preferred the sound of bullets whizzing by his head in battle over the sound of silence. president to win the Medal of Honor, which he did after he died.

Plenty of historians can tell you which president had the most effective economic strategies, and which president helped shape our current political parties, but can any of them tell you what to do if you encounter Chester A. Make no mistake: Our founding fathers were more bandanas-and-muscles than powdered-wigs-and-tea. He was thirteen years old. Theodore Roosevelt had asthma, was blind in one eye, survived multiple gunshot wounds, had only one regret (that there were no wars to fight under his presidency), and was the first U.S. A few decades later, he became the first popularly elected president and served the nation, pausing briefly only to beat a would-be assassin with a cane to within an inch of his life.

Bad Medicine said Should be required reading in high school/college history courses. I finished reading this book last night, and, I would recommend it to anyone.

Basically a 200 page DOB top Cracked article. Good book, got exactly what I expected. A humorous take on the history of all the currently deceased US Presidents. 3-6 pages entries on every one. learned a few interesting tidbits interspersed with DOB's well honed style of self deprecating, nerdy humor. If you're interested in US history or presidents, there's a lot in this book. I just wish he'd expanded on some of the more noteworthy presidents. Presidents with crazy feats or ant. How to fight Daniel O'Brien When trying to fight Daniel O'Brien, I can only implore you to reconsider. This is not a fight any sane person would attempt. However, if you feel like you must engage him, be warned that your only asset will be the element of surprise. Do not let him know that you plan to fight him. If he so much as suspects your intentions, you are screwed. O'brien will size you up, pinpoint all of your weaknesses, and exploit them without remorse.
