First time I lost it was when I saw the editorial cartoon of Reagan's legacy - a broken Berlin Wall with people holding their arms up to heaven. Today? Donwannatalkaboudid...

I turned the computer off and watched the whole thing in silence.........................

Yup. I was all teared up on numerous occasions:
Bagpipes, sunsets, lone planes climbing into the sky, widows kissing caskets.................................

Did you notice that right after she honored her friend and colleague, the sun went down. Two of a kind. May God raise up more like them.

Yes, Margaret Thatcher's timing was perfect. The timing was providential. No way could it have been orchestrated.

I was doing pretty good until Nancy put her head on the coffin, then I lost it.

God bless Ronald Reagan!

I started crying when I saw all those cars pulled over on the highway with the people standing beside them. Didn't stop through the whole thing.

I think I saw Michael praying (for strength...?) before they started the eulogies.

Lost and tired. Mrs. Reagan is in her 80's and has had a very emotional and strenious(sp?)week. I wish her all the best, truly a very classy lady.

BTW- Love your tag line!

"Numerous times crying (but I hid it well from my wife)."

I suspect she knows anyway....but why did you try and hide it?
