TP for the first who gets either of these:

1) There is one State capital in the entire United States that doesn't share a letter with the state it is capital of. What is it?

2)Who is the only President of the United States to lead the United States Military on the battlefield as Commander in chief?

Oklahoma

That answer is a joke by the way for those who actually know their state capitals...

It's ok, it's amazing how many times I thought I had the right answer even after spelling both the state and capital out, only to miss something completely obvious.
