These are in an exhibition. Opening tonight.

I am going to do a performance in which I will recite the names of all 44 presidents in order from memory to cheering throngs. :bob: :omg: :thumb:

But can you name them in order of shortest to longest terms from memory?

Also, WHERE IN THE WORLD IS MILLARD FILLMORE?

Probably not. I can, however, recite the years within which they served from memory.

This is where Millard FIllmore is now:

I wrote a paper in History class back in college called, "Millard Fillmore: America's Worst President?" I don't think the teacher got that I intended it to be funny. When all shook out I got an "A".

I've also created a work of art with text called,

"Legendary Mediocrities of the Executive Branch: The 1850's"

It featured MF along with Franklin Pierce and James Buchanon. I aplogized to Zachary Taylor for not including him. He didn't have much of a chance to be mediocre but if he had served longer probably would have faced the slavery problem head-on and may have become a decent president.
