Those masters of trivia at Mental Floss have a list of some of the most bizarre, unique and downright nutty gifts for some US Presidents. Take George Bush Junior for example - President Bush and his family received about 1,000 gifts per month during his two terms in office. Bush’s haul included an iPod from U2 lead singer, Bono, a Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook and vocabulary-building game from the Sultan of Brunei, and an electric harp with a speakerphone from Vietnam. The most unusual gift Bush received may have been the 300 pounds of raw lamb meat from the president of Argentina in 2003. More over here.
