William Henry Harrison should have listened!!
William Henry Harrison was our 9th President. Do you remember what he did? What he accomplished in his presidency?
Hmmmmm......Maybe that's because he was only President for 30 days.
But why did he serve only 30 days????? He DIDN'T wear a coat and hat in the cold!!
Yes, it's true.
He gave the longest inaugural address in Presidential history---a whopping 2.5 hours. BUT he didn't wear a coat or hat. Unfortunately, he died an untimely death being out in the cold that long. He caught pneumonia and hypothermia from being in the cold that long and died shortly thereafter.
How do I know such a Jeopardy-like factoid? Michael.

Just goes to show, the old wives' tale of wear a coat or you'll catch a cold is true! :)
