Ah, yes. The day Ronaldus Magnus kicked Walter Mondale’s sorry rear end from Maine to California. That was one of my favorite moments in history, as well.

It was even better when he evicted Jimmy Carter’s sorry rear end from the WH in 1980.

I woke up, along with my dear grandmother, at 4 a.m. in Puerto Rico on the morning of July 28, 1981 (or thereabouts) to watch this wedding. I was 15 years old and I loved watching all sorts of royal weddings and beauty pageants with my grandmother. Every time I go down to Puerto Rico now (about twice a year), I still spend hours on end sitting down with her, watching fun T.V. shows and specials like this one.
