Millard Filmore 

Single-handedly the most useless president EVER! He wasn't bad, he just did nothing. He became president after Zachery Taylor did in office, so he only had like 2 years. Even so, he is the most forgetable president in America History next to William Henry Harisson (died 1 month into office.)
How was your report of Millard Filmore?
Who the crap was Millard Filmore?

Anti-Mason Party 

The first third part in Amirican history established during the early 1800s roughly around time of Andrew Jackson's Administration. They were a group opposed to the Mason secret society that seemed to have a strong grip on American politics at the time. They died out quickly.
Don't blame me, I voted anti-mason.

Bull Moose Party 

The most successful third party in American History. It was headed by Tedd Roosevelt fresh of his African Safari and was completely based of his candidacy of the 1912 Presidental election. The whole purpose was to get rid of President Taft after TR realized that he sucked as a president. Bull Moose split the Republican vote and allowed Dem. Woodrow Wilson to win the election. The Party died with TR in 1919.
More states voted Bull Moose than voted Republican.

Gonzo Journalism 

A form of journalism invented by Hunter S. Thompson. It involves the reporter reporting the action as he/she is in it. Elements are part experience and part fiction. The best example of Gonzo journalism is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. It was a book from 1971 made into a Johnny Depp movie in 1998.
From fisrt glance, I knew immedialtely that this God-forshaken rest stop was no place for a Gonzo journalist.

Fireworks you buy over county or state lines and bring back for fun.

Joe Cocker 

The greatest British soul singer fo all time. He toured as Joe Cocker and the Grease Band for a while. His biggest songs were the Beatles "With a little help from my friends", "Feelin' Alright", "The Letter" and "Love Picked us up". The last one is his most annoying. It was for the movie "An Officer and a Gentlemen". It's jsut a really sappy song, but the rest are just kick ass!
Joe Cocker had some really weird moves.
