Presidents' Day Trivia

And you were wondering why you didn't get mail today, weren't you?

I came across an interesting piece of trivia while I was researching my, er... I mean Ty's fourth grade president report on Martin Van Buren and I thought today would be a good day to share it with you.

"Van Buren was from Kinderhook, New York, sometimes referred to as Old Kinderhook in speeches and print. O.K. Clubs soon formed to support Van Buren's campaign. "O.K." later came to mean all right."

Happy Presidents' Day!
