Bedtime for Bonzo
What with all the D-day shenanigans, I completely forgot the time had finally run out for the Gipper.
Whatever you may think of him (mad) and whatever his political approach was (mad), he was a very well loved man by Americans and Europeans alike. Except perhaps the Russians.
He was the first US President I knew of to have his own Trivial Pursuit question (Who said "Honey, I forgot to duck"?) but as he was the Prez during my formative years I will always remember the sabre rattling and bear baiting that became his trademark. That and a sneaking suspicion that he and Maggie Thatcher were getting it on.
I also think I had him in a dead pool sometime, I will have to look into that.
