Still awake, found this:
Have a history teacher explain this...if they can:
-Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
-John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
-Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
-John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.
-Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
-Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.
-Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
-Both Presidents were shot in the head.
Now it gets really weird:
-Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy.
-Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln.
-Southerners assassinated both.
-Southerners named Johnson succeeded both.
-Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808.
-Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.
-John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839.
-Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.
-Both assassins were known by their three names.
-Both names are composed of fifteen letters.
Now hang on to your seat:
-Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.'
-Kennedy was shot in a car called 'Lincoln' made by 'Ford.'
-Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
-Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater.
-Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.
And here's the kicker...A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland. A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe. 
weird coincidences, huh?

I may be the odd man out here, but some things I've known since 4th grade still amuse me.
