Kerry Honors Reagan By Going On Vacation
I honored Reagan last night by getting fall-down drunk. I think I will honor him today by avoiding any overtly political tv shows and just watching bad 80's movies.



PS - I wonder if anyone will ask Kerry about Iran-Contra...

2. People still ride 10-speed racing bikes?
Haven't seen one in a while.

Now it's all mountain bikes.

7. Probably 27 or 30 speeds.
Plenty of road bikes out there. They are much better than mountain bikes for traveling long distances on pavement.

4. Hey, No Lurch Jokes!


Apparently, Reagan - not Clinton - was the first black President...

9. No. Seriously! I loved that show when it was new!
And I'd rather watch it than The RayGun Show.

8. Aw, C'mon
He may not have been the sharpest cheese in the fridge, but Reagan had a strong maternal instinct that should be honored.



Picture of Reagan with a young George W.

10. Caption?
I can't help but to look at that picture and caption:

"Someday George you too can become President."

16. Thanks.
The photo reminds people how long Reagan spent "nurturing" the Conservative movement.

11. I heard Kerry will further honor Reagan by ....
1. Appearing detached and clueless.
2. Pretending he can't hear reporter's questions.
3. Taking long catnaps during the day.
4. Making up anecdotes about things that never happened.
5. Calling Teresa "mommy"
6. Not recognizing his children.
7. Not going to church because of security concerns.
8. Carrying around 3 x 5 cards for everything.

12. Bush Will Honor Reagan By Invading A Small Country
That poses no threat. Oh, wait...

How about secretly selling weapons to Iran? Well, at least Bush paid someone to sell secrets to Iran.

15. I'd take any excuse if I were him.
He's been working his butt off campaigning. Come back to DC, Senator, do the "remembrances" and memorials and pay your respects; take a few naps, overeat a few meals. Then go ahead get back out there! :)
