Mitch, I got an email from you that said it was a response to my response to the Friday stumper. I didn't open it because of the virus stuff and I figured I could read it here, but it isn't here! Was it really from you or was it that nasty virus?

-- Jo (mamamia2kids@msn.com), November 30, 2001.

I did not and will not send any email to anyone at this time.

I just put up notice to do not open any email using my name, this means your own email, not the forums.

Thats four out of five Polly, my sources say they are based on offical portrates and Taft is not included; the born in Ohio part suprizes me in that it was not mentioned by my people, and is not the answer I am seeking but your right about the other four having beards, whos the fifth president with a beard?

-- mitch hearn (moopups@citlink.net), November 30, 2001.

Mitch, I took another approach with your statement about who was the fifth president with a beard. So how about this for an answer, Lincoln, Grant, Hayes, Garfield and Harrison all had beards and were also all Republicans. Polly
