It can take a few minutes for any vid you upload to YT to be available for viewing.

I don't mind going to your site at all, but this way will save you some bandwidth plus it will get to a larger audience.

I love that you dedicated it to "Mrs. Betty Ford." You have some great photos of her, of both of them. I think she would love it.

As for his stumbling, someone mentioned on a another thread that President Ford had bad knees. That would be quite believable, given his athletic activities and his military service.

The man had such a glow...

If you get a youtube account, you can get more bandwidth and views, that is what I have been advised to do and I am giving it a try.

I also got comments on two corrections, but I am too tired and it isn't exactly like it is up for a pulitzer prize, unless all y'all nominate it...;D

Ah, I like her. She's a TX girl and a Pubbie - maybe that's why. Well, that plus I just loved her in NExposure. She was my fave person on the show.

I gave him a pass because I'd assumed he was a last minute stand-in since Rummy had been stranded in a snow storm. He read his eulogy to President Ford as though it was the first time he'd seen it.

I didn't notice anything needing correcting, but then I'm tired now too. I'll look into the youtube thing.

So that's what the "Dose" is - I never knew what in the world you were talking about, lol! Thought it was "inside baseball." Hmm, guess it is!

Didn't she also fail the bar exam several times in DC and that was one of the reasons she moved to Arkansas as theirs was much easier to pass?

Great pic of VP, GRF, and Rummy!!!!
I work evenings so I watched when FOX came on at 6:30. Very touching, fine ceremony, although it seemed the band was a little off key.

yes, that would be a good start, LOL...no smoking allowed at my daughter's so I should go live there for a couple of weeks to kick it..can't do such a thing, but it would be one way (I have my mother to care for...)and when at my daughter's babysitting I only smoked outside, like one or two smokes in 5 or more hours, so I think the patch might work!
