Corp000085 Posted December 31, 2006 Posted December 31, 2006 someone passed out directly behind the microphone, moments after the honor guard took their places around the Ford coffin under the capital rotunda. Interesting stuff
The Poojer Posted December 31, 2006 Posted December 31, 2006 very moving tonight..the whole WWII part, the speeches by Hastert and Cheney were awesome! Ted Stevens was horrible...Darrin, don't they teach you to read up there???? all in all a very nice memorial
/dev/null Posted December 31, 2006 Posted December 31, 2006 Seems kind of fitting to have someone fall down at Ford's funeral
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 31, 2006 Posted December 31, 2006 State funerals are interesting ... Warning LAMP below... And no irreverance towards Gerald R. Ford : I get a day off on Tuesday... Paid... Or either I can come in and work 8 for 16 if there aren't two people that show up... I will probably take off and watch the kids (being on Holiday break)... There will be enough people to scarf up this holiday pay and seeing I worked both Christmas and will New Year's... I shouldn't be too greeady... Thank you GWB!!... Your numerous and may I say NUMEROUS exec. orders are good for something...

ExiledInIllinois Posted January 1, 2007 Posted January 1, 2007 so what you're saying is BushNotSoBad I really don't like: Bush bad! I have always said: Iraq war bad! Everybody has a nasty side to 'em though... Everybody has a good side... I prefer to "cherry pick" what is good and what is bad... You know that... I think it is rather foolish to give fed employees the day off with pay or pay them the bonus... But, I will take it... Seems like a great waste of money... I do notice that he gets off on many, many exec. orders though...
UConn James Posted January 1, 2007 Posted January 1, 2007 Seems kind of fitting to have someone fall down at Ford's funeral Just watch out for errant golf balls at the burial! I mean --- all that grass, flags at the tee, a 3'x6' hole, and a giant crowd....
