John "Quincy" Adams


Did you know that not only was John "Quincy" Adams our sixth president, but he was also one of the country’s first medical examiners? That's right, that John "Quincy" Adams. Adams used his position as M.E. to crusade for various causes. Often, his supervisors failed to believe in his hunches- but he was always proven right at the end. He was given to lengthy self-righteous speeches on everything from the dangers of punk rock to the fragility of the human spirit. John "Quincy" Adams lived on a houseboat and liked to hang out at a local drinking establishment all before such things were considered "cool". He fared really well with the honeys. This was, of course, long before he became President John "Quincy" Adams. Not too shabby at all.
