Hey, W, It's Birthday Week
Reminder to President Bush : Your mom turns 80 on June 8, and your dad is 81 on June 12. And if you haven't already sent a present to Texas, forget it. They're leaving town for an annual cruise. In fact, they gave orders at the Bush library to tone down the celebration, though a party will be held in their absence June 10 with punch and cake.
But here's a way you can mark the occasion. Library officials tell us they've created a virtual birthday card for friends to send Poppy and Bar. It's at http://bushlibrary.tamu.edu .
GHWB, at 80, looks 70, talks like he's 60, and is far more active than most who are 50. I'll be surprised if he doesn't break Ronald Reagan's Presidential lifespan record.
I hope he does break Reagan's longevity record, although Ford will probably do that too. If Bush I does live well into his 90s, he might get to see a second son become POTUS.
Happy birthday to Bush 41 and his lovely wife. Many, many happy returns.
