So you are posting things you don't know in the Did You Know thread.

Other way around, Washington is the one who introduced the usage of 'Mr. President'.

I've often thought Lord or Duke has a nice ring to it��

Prince Rogers Nelson even went further and transcended into a symbol, and had no actual name ever again.

Oh, and remember The King!

I remember reading a text some hilarious Indian (I think he was Indian) dude put on his site quite a few years back (before blogs, Facebook and all that jazz). In it he finds incredible similarities between late Lady Di and Elvis. He verifies them point by point. Like this:

- Di died in the car, making out with Dodi.	- Elvis died on the can, making a doodie.
- Diana was the Princess of Wales.	- Elvis was the King of Rock and Roll, and roughly the size of a whale.
- The Royal Family is notoriously inbred and is said to have "blue blood"	- Elvis starred in "Kissing Cousins" and sang that he had "blue suede shoes."

And so on...

Oh, the same guy had a text that proves that David Hasselhoff is the AntiChrist.

The case is that Hoff and his television series emergence were foretold in the Bible, to be precise, where else, in the Revelation of Saint John. Let's just mention here the Whore of Babylon ("Baywatch",

). And let's ask a real question: how the hell the world's least talented individual managed to become worldwide famous if he weren't?

I finally managed to find the links:
Elvis lives, Princess Dies
and
David Hasselhoff is the AntiChrist

I see a completely new wave in the political correctness issues pool: no mocking of cherophobes allowed.

In their case it has a double impact: you are mocking them and scare the shit out of them at the same time.
