No, this is not a math question! -- George Washington...some say that it was because of his teeth but if you had his problems, you wouldn't be smiling either -- If the British set fire to the White House, why didn't the smoke detectors go off? -- Americans won their freedom on battles fought in the east. So when it was over, they moved west. Sure, that makes sense -- The Civil War: America's real family feud -- Following the war, America lived happily ever after for the next few years -- The inventors: if you build it, someone will probably show up -- If it was the 20th century, then why was it in the 1900s? -- You mean John Wayne didn't win the war for our side? -- Hey Grandpa...were you a hippie? -- The 1980s and 1990s, or, as we call it, the days when machines took over the country -- Y2k...was that like the first cell phone? -- Internal briefings: the presidency -- One more time!
