Reagan family has arrived in Santa Monica to escort President Reagan's body to his library.

[areafiftyone]

I am sure they will.

[Howlin]

I'm thinking I am going to leave off any mascara this week.

That pic is from (I believe) "Hellcats of the Navy", which I think is the only movie in which President and Nancy Reagan appeared together. Not a bad movie actually...

[rwfromkansas]

Well....Drudge said yesterday, yes. Previously they said no.

So.....your guess is as good as mine.

One of my mother's girl friends (she's 86) has a practice wake every year. She invites oodles of folks over for hor'dourves and drinks and asks them to celebrate life. They've been doing it for so many years now, I honestly think her wake will be yet another entertaining event for all attendees - just as she has planned.

Sounds like a neat lady. Her name isn't Auntie Mame, is it?

Sounds like these kids? are with the wrong party. Trying to do the right thing albeit a bit premature. Ya gotta give them credit.

These kids should teach the adults they work for a little thing about proper manners and proper respect

The only movie they were in together.

Hellcats of the Navy!

[RoseofTexas]

Ooops, I guess in my haste I goofed...God Bess should read God Bless and MR. should read MRS.! I guess I'm still in a cloud of sadness...:(

In the 60's men still wore a suit and tie when they flew..

[faithincowboys]

Well, he was bringing up Beirut--and framed it as "AMany people though the U.S. had made a major mistake. Then he said something about "Reagan was forced to raise taxes."

Now isn't the time for that no account sh*t to take it upon himself "to cut Reagan down to size." He is always trying to keep his options open in a post FNC environment. I always get the impression that that little effeminate, slow-minded troll thinks he might get Rather's desk someday--so he spews the Left's bilge. I don't know why anybody likes that guy.

That little framed SOB should just quit and go get a squeege and do windshields.

I have Hellcats of the Navy on tape (somewhere).

I would like the see King's Row, which is supposed to be his
best movie.

[Mayflower Sister]

Actually, I'm taping it ALL, for a keepsake. If you can't, maybe a friend would do that for you.

I love RONALD REAGAN....he has always been my hero. Watching everything this weekend on TV, reminded me again why I loved him so much.

I was a Rat before Reagan, after Carter and what a terrible president he was; I gladly voted for Ronald Reagan both terms. I never looked back, my family hounded me because I had left the rat party, but I never cared.

I raised my child to be a conservative Republican because of the GREAT PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN!!!! MAY GOD BLESS HIM FOREVER!!!!

'Hellcats of the Navy?'

[First_Salute]

That's right; and thanks.

[prairiebreeze]

I'm sorry to hear that Lady Thatcher's health is so frail. It is America's honor to have her visit for the funeral of President Reagan.

Take a minute and ask the Gov to close the schools on Friday. Your kids will learn more watching the service than attending school.
