Sometimes when debating about whether to keep the kid out of school for one thing or another, I'd ask myself: "What's she going to remember 30 years from now?"

Will it be watching President Reagans funeral with mom or that day in school? Much more likely the former I'd guess.

Looks like the motorcade is showing up.

FYI - I couldn't get MSNBC video to launch so I initiated a 14 day free trial to CNN online video - which is working and I will promptly cancel after this week's ceremonies.

Not to interfer with a Mother and her son, but please consider letting him stay home to watch. I still remember President Eisenhower's funeral on TV when I was 8. My Mom and Dad did me a great service by encouraging me to watch, ask questions, etc.

The memory is still quite vivid.

The Carters were southern and all southern folks know how to entertain gracefully.

I thought I read they refused to serve liquor -- to a lot of griping from the social set!

Switched to CNN... Fox is talking too much. CNN is a bit more subdued.

YOu can bet his excuse note will say that he stayed home to watch the Presidents funeral for this National day of mourning. Just to stick it to them LOL

I did take a ride around town today to make sure all flags were at half mass and later I will call church to make sure they are going to do the 40 bells at 115 on friday.

I read that Maureen and Dennis adopted a Ugandan girl who is a young teenager. I believe her name is Rita. I haven't seen her thus far.

That is correct. They didn't even serve champagne, if I remember correctly. Carter was a Southern Baptist then and they didn't believe in drinking.

Of course, since he now thinks that the DNC-approval of abortion is paramount, he has disaffiliated himself from the Southern Baptists.
