A nation mourns...

We have lost a truly great American today. Ronald Reagan will be missed.

 

i just heard that on the radio while MikeO and i were workin on the Bug. thats too bad indeed but 93 years is one helluva long life, and he lived it to the max.

Yes, I would say he did. Not many people get as lucky in life as Reagan did, but I think he payed for it with the last ten years.

 

He was a great man........RIP

 

For what it's worth, he was the oldest Preident ever.

 

He was a great man indeed...As a kid in the 80's myself it was amazing how much influence he had on the younger generation,unlike any since.I remember watching the ***isantion attempt on TV in the Third grade.My teacher stopped the cl*** and brought a TV from from someplace to watch the news.If memory serves me right that was in 81'..Also enjoyed doing impersonations of him like my hero Joe Piscapo from SNL at the time...My kids didnt have a clue who he was..we were talking about it and they said oh that old man died.I had to explain to them,he wasnt just some old man.. Welp...we'll miss you Mr President..

 

He made me believe he was a cowboy. and he made me believe he was a president.

 

He got my very first presidential vote... Jeez, I'm old.

 

Marcus, what a trip, same here. In 3rd grade and teacher comes in all sad talking about the ***ination attempt...
