An Example of Synchronicity...
This is kinda interesting. Enjoy :o
History Lesson!
Have a history teacher explain this - if they can.
Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.
Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.
Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.
Now it gets really weird.
Lincoln '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.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, 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 were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.
Now hang on to your seat.
Lincoln was shot at the theatre named 'Ford.'
Kennedy was shot in a car called 'Lincoln' made by 'Ford.'
Lincoln was shot in a theatre and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theatre.
Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.
And here's the kicker...
A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.
Weird huh?

I thought JFK was shot in the neck/upper chest.
And it wasn't Lee Harvey Oswald who assassinated Kennedy. It was Kennedy himself.

Tell me, is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise!

"I say Evamonkey did it himself. After seeing that Titus had more Eva images than him, he was driven into a fit of jealousy that led him to set this up in the hope of infecting everyone with a trojan that automatically rooted through their harddrives and sending him any images he didnt already have." - Space Penis

A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.
I expected the second part to read "A week before Kennedy was shot, he was in Marilyn Monroe." Funny?
There's a book I once had (then lost, and had to pay the library for) called "The Cosmic Joker" that had similar incidents. The weirdest one involved two men who discovered that their names, their children's names, their wive's names, their birthdays, and their birthplaces, were identical. They were assassinated within one day of each other.
There's great doubt that Oswald did it.
I heard that Kennedy revealed the secret of UFOs to Marliyn Monroe and had to be silenced for it. You just can't trust the government anymore.
The purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure poor reasoning, and inhibit clarity. With a little practice, writing can be an intimidating and impenetrable fog!

I actually did a project on this. Amazingly a couple weeks before this was posted. o.0
I came up with one myself.
The third letter of each of John Wilkes Booth's names forms one of Harvy-Lee Oswald's initials.

Too bad his name is actually Lee Harvey Oswald, and also it would be a stronger coincidence if it went both ways.

What about the other presidents to have died while in office? Can someone find connections between William Henry Harrison and Franklin Delanor(sp) Roosevelt? Aside from the obvious "They both have three names!"
Anyways, it's a nice little read. That's about it, Kennedy was the last of the presidents to fall to the "20 Year Curse."

@Zugzwng
Not at a distance of over 20 years. ISTR that the short form was somewhere in Illuminatus!
@Eternal Yamcha
Reagan got shot, but not fatally. Dubya has been lucky so far.

Yes, that's why I said Kennedy was the last of the "20 Year Curse." The curse was started in 1840 and lasted up to 1960, dooming 7 US Presidents in its course. Whenever a president was elected on a leap year (every 5th leap year) that president would die in office.
William Henry Harrison: Died in office on April 4th, 1840... After only a month in office... From Pneumonia... He delivered a 2 hour long inaugural speech without an overcoat on during a chilly and windy day.
Abraham Lincoln: I don't need to go into detail
James Garfield: Died from a gunshot wound on September 19th, 1880, just 6 and a half months after being elected. He had actually been shot long before he died, two bullets entered him, the second one, in his back. Alexander Graham Bell (Inventor of the Telephone) devised a metal detector but due to the president being stricken in a bed that had a metal bed frame, the device failed. What a sucky death, blood poisoning, heart attack and bronchial pneumonia.
William McKinley: Unlike the other deaths due to the curse, William McKinley wasn't first elected in a year with a 0 at the end, it was 1896 when he was first elected, but his re-election in 1900 would prove to be his demise. He, like Garfield, died from blood poisoning caused by a gunshot.
William G. Harding: Elected in 1920, died while out on a cross-country trip essentially. He had developed pneumonia... Dying during his term on August 2nd, 1923.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt: Like McKinley up there, his fate was determined by not his first election, but a follow up one. FDR is famous for being the only president to be elected more than twice, he was elected a staggering 4 times, from 1933 to 1945. It was his election in 1940 that pretty much did him in. On April 12th, 1945, Roosevelt, while having a potrait done of himself (the Unifinished Portrait), suffered a massive cerebral hemorrhage.
John F. Kennedy: Don't need to dig into that one either.
Reagan had an attempted assassination but didn't die.
And if anyone assassinated Bush, that person would be scorned by people world wide... No one wants Cheney to be president.
