Large denominations of United States currency

  • The $500 bill featured a portrait of William McKinley
  • The $1,000 bill featured a portrait of Grover Cleveland
  • The $5,000 bill featured a portrait of James Madison
  • The $10,000 bill featured a portrait of Salmon P. Chase
  • The $100,000 bill featured a portrait of Woodrow Wilson

Although they are still technically legal tender in the United States, high-denomination bills were last printed in 1945 and officially discontinued on July 14, 1969, by the Federal Reserve System. The $5,000 and $10,000 effectively disappeared well before then: there are only about 200 $5,000 and 300 $10,000 bills known, of all series since 1861.

List of U.S. presidential faux-pas, gaffes, and unfortunate incidents

lbjonphone.jpegYou can even listen to a clip of LBJ and his pants:

Johnson was well known for his coarse language and occasionally unrefined behavior. While not a gaffe in office, an embarrassingly personal tape of LBJ ordering pants from Joe Haggar on August 9, 1964, was later released to the public. In it Johnson belches, complains about the pants riding up and cutting him “where your nuts hang” when he gains a little weight, like “riding a wire fence,” and asks for more material “around under my bunghole” that he can let out if need be.

And I would have thought there would be more entries for W, but then again, his term isn’t finished yet.
