Bush Skydiving

Two days after we buried Reagan with a week-long pageant, Bush the 41st is sky-diving on his 80th birthday.

While I have no doubt he'll survive fine (better and lesser people have done it at even older ages), I find it ironic that they're choosing this potentially dangerous event so soon after Reagan. So - heaven forbid - something does happen, please spare us the non-stop coverage.

I have a hard time remembering anything good Bush the 41st did for us - and the worse thing he did was giving us Bush 43 - so let's just sit this one out, even if CNN is doing non-stop coverage of his jumps (oy!).
