state funeral relief

Thanks–it was of some relief.

I did most of my drinking while the man was in office…I’ll stick to Lyon’s for now, thanks.

I would play the game, but am afraid it might kill me, Or maybe just render me incoherent, what’ that? Too late you say!

I could handle a tongue-in-cheek poke at the overdone coverage following President Reagan’s death, but the proposal to “drink twice” at the sight of a grieving widow and laying many of society’s greatest ills at the feet of a man so obviously loved by so many? This approach to “relief” reflects the lack of sensitivity and judgment of those who have perhaps participated in a few too many drinking games already.

I’m not usually one to stir things up, but I don’t think such poor taste properly reflects the spirit of this board. For those who disagree, go ahead and take your shots; I don’t intend to continue this discussion. President Regan’s legacy is debatable; the appropriateness of this post, in my opinion, is not.
