You can't make this stuff up, Part 3

So the legal assistant and I were talking the other day about names and she asked me about mine.  I explained to her that my dad was born when President Harding was elected in 1920 so his parents named him Harding.  I am named Harding after my dad.

She looked at me for a second and then rolled her eyes.  "Yeah...like there was really a president named Harding."

Not for people of my generation growing up in the US. Education is in a very sad state these days.

Me and my husband sat at the table one night and tried to write down the names of all the US Presidents we did pretty good only missed a few...But don't ask me to put them in order I could never do that except a first few and the last 10 or so......Truman was President when I was born....It is quite sad today because so much of this isn't taught anymore : (
