The TV Was On Loud In Another Room When I Woke Up This A.M. And I Still Didn't Know Ford Died......
and I heard someone say that "Our long national nightmare was over". I was at first overjoyed thinking that * resigned or something. Then I heard that Ford died. Not saying anything bad about Ford - but needless to say I was disapointed that it wasn't a comment about *.

1. So what was the long national nightmare?
Was it an old clip having to do with Nixon resigning?

2. That would have been Ford's quote at the time of Nixon's resignation.

4. I looked out my window and saw a flag at half staff
I figured somebody important must have died. I watched Headline News for nearly 15 minutes before I heard it was President Ford.
