Gerald Ford was an assistant football coach at Yale. He played football at the University of Michigan and turned down offers to play for the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers. Eventually he tackled the job of being president, but was carried off the field after only one term.
Clinton hitting on him.

I've actually visited the Gerald Ford Museum in Grand Rapids MI. The only decent place in that ghastly city!
Debi, I thought it was funny the with the typo. And I'd had a few caffeine injections by then! Joy, I read about Dan Quayle's Library - sadly it burned down both the books in there. And what makes it even worse is that he hadn't finished painting one of them.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I feel my fate in what I cannot fear. I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know? I hear my being dance from ear to ear. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you? God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there, And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how? The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do To you and me; so take the lively air, And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know. What falls away is always. And is near. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I learn by going where I have to go.

these scandals in the
White House keep popping up
Always enjoy a good Dan Quayle joke, Oxy!
Ford was kind of fetching in his day.
