We DON'T have a Wiener!!!

Yes....

the 4 Presidents pictured were.....
John Adams...
Calvin Coolidge..
James Monroe...
and
Thomas Jefferson.

What they had "in common" no one knew
(except some "2nd guessers")
July 4th.

Adams and Jefferson BOTH died on July 4th 1826
Both men wanted to live to see the Country's 50th Birthday (Cha..Cha..Cha)

Adams last words were...."Thomas Jefferson survives...."
but he was wrong because Jefferson passed a few hours earlier.

James Monroe....passed away 5 years later in 1831.

Calvin Coolidge was born on July 4th....1872.

Have a great 4th weekend.....
and a couple of black-charred hotdogs on the grill.
(or 68 like Joey Chestnut above at Nathan's)
