Gerald Ford Trivia

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.

I've actually visited the Gerald Ford Museum in Grand Rapids MI. The only decent place in that ghastly city!

I want to go to all the Presidential libraries and museums. I've been to two so far.

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.
