John Adams

a. John Adams (1735-1826) 2nd president of the United States, he helped establish the primacy of the voter when he left office upon the election of an opponent of a rival political party (Jefferson); helped persuade the Continental Congress to adopt the Declaration of Independence; and understood the importance of a strong navy long before other American leaders. But he was often personally offensive and, further, pushed the Alien & Sedition Acts, making it a crime to criticize the president.

b. John Coolidge Adams (1947- ) a minimalist American composer, won the Pulitzer Prize for his choral work based on the 9/11 destruction of the World Trade Center, "On the Transmigration of Souls." A composer of operas, he is most widely known for his minimalist opera "Nixon in China."

c. John Couch Adams (1819–1892), a British mathematician and astronomer, predicted the existence of the planet Neptune, solely on the basis of mathematics and the laws of Newton and Kepler. The Royal Astronomical Society later awarded him its Gold Medal.

d. John Quincy Adams (1767–1848) 6th president of the United States and son of the 2nd, distinguished himself as an early opponent of slavery. But he was a one-term president, having entered office under the cloud of a shady bargain involving the electoral college. He died of a stroke while serving in Congress, in the same room as the young Abraham Lincoln who, unfortunately, had never the time to know and learn from him.

He's smart and offensive, a regular John Adams!

Adams Street

An infamous and wonderful road in Maycomb, Illinois. It is the biggest party street in the midwest, as it borders Western Illinois University and has the majority of the schools frat houses on it. Everything from 900+ person parties to 12 person beer bong structures have been seen. Consistent parties almost every day of the week, with a special emphasis on thirsty thursday and holiday weekends. Also, while unproven, Adams Street is generally considered to be the biggest market for Keystone Light, a particular brand of light beer, in the entire United States. The general party atmosphere is only aided by the notoriously lax and generally lazy Maycomb police and Western's own Office of Public security. Ranked as one of the best party streets in the country (top three normally) and easily the most fun you can have at college.

John: What we do every night...
Grant: Ahhh, adams street

judge adams

1. The worse type of ass-whooping you can get by someone else.

A beat down so bad, you have to hide it for seven years before you can recover and tell someone about it.

2. A douchebag who beats his children and hides behind the law and claims that because he "apologized" he did not commit child abuse.

Dude 1: "Did you hear what happened to Johnny?"

Dude 2: "Yeah, his chick went all judge Adams on his ass for cheating on her."
