AIR FORCED NEXT TO ONE: You've settled comfortably into that aisle seat, praying that no one will come on the plane and take that middle seat so you can spread your legs and ride in comfort when at the last moment here comes a passenger and its none other than one of the presidents of the United States. So, the question is, which president past or present do you want to sit next to on the non-stop from O'Hare to Logan? Well, when asked this very question, some 27% said they wanted Bill Clinton to be their seatmate. Clinton topped the list of presidential travel partners, followed by 19% who wanted to sit with JFK, 18% with George W. Bush, 17% with Reagan, 10% with Carter, 8% with FDR, and just 1% with Nixon. (Note that these seven were the only choices in the survey, denying people from choosing Garfield or Tyler.)

In other Presidents' Day list news, two recent surveys asked people to list the greatest president (presumedly they were allowed to pick from the entire list). Lincoln came up No. 1 on one list, while Reagan topped the other.

And since the First Lady is hiring a new cook for the White House mess, here's a list of past White House Chefs.
