Some of you may have seen or heard of the similarities of Lincoln and Kennedy. There kind of eerie. I'd post them now, but I have them at home, not here at work. If people are interested I'll (or someone else) post them tonight.

Update:
Here's the Kennedy/Lincoln stuff:

Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846, JFK in 1946.
Lincoln was elected President in 1860, JFK in 1960
The names Lincoln and Kennedy each contain 7 letters
Both were concered with civil rights
Both wives lost children while living in the White House
Both presidents were shot on a Friday
Both were shot in the head
Licoln's secretary was named Kennedy, Kennedy's secretary was named Lincoln
Both were assassinated by southerners
Both were succeeded by southerners named Johnson
Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lydon Johnson, who succeeded Kennendy, 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 are know by three names - both contain 15 letters
Lincoln was shot in a theatre called "Ford" - Kennedy was shot in a car called "Ford"
Booth ran from a theatre and was caught in a warehouse. Oswald ran from a warehouse and was caught in a theatre.
Booth and Oswald werer assassinated before their trials.
A week before he was shot, Lincoln was in Monroe, Maryland. A week before he was shot, Kennendy was in Marilyn Monroe!

All that, plus the Zero Factor.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Do you know where your variables are?
