BrunoBrimley 86 Posted March 15, 2006 he'll go the same way as John Profumo.. some kind of stroke...any day now Cut the crap Illyan you've been dishing out this idiotic load of nonsense since you arrived here. Ford ain't about to die......and definitely not just because you so desire it. One other thing.................have a deathly satisfying day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MyBrainHurts2 4 Posted March 15, 2006 Seeing this pic and being how Ford has been in and out of the hospital, he reminds me of a departed deathlister- William Rehnquist. Rehnquist would go to the hospital and be released and you might see a pic of him from a distance with an aide or two (like this one with Ford). Nobody thought he was going anywhere and then bang, he died rather unexpectedly at home one evening. So even thought Ford has been back up and out again a little, it doesn't mean that he has a long time to live. Stay tuned guys! Rehnquist had thyroid cancer and was seen fairly close up repeatedly, hell, sometimes he was even heard when he covered his tracheotomy in court. Supreme Court Billy was going to keep going with his duties until his toes curled up. That man was a publicly viewable slam dunk. Ford, while old, frail and sick, is a little tougher to pinpoint as far as death is concerned. Anytime you hear or see anything resembling a public eulogy, and details on someone's health seem to be a little lacking, something has to be up. Personally, I'm waiting for Ford to go cold and stiff, but not banking on it happening in the coming days and weeks. Could be wrong though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to see Ford live long enough to break Reagan's longevity record, just out of spite! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrunoBrimley 86 Posted March 15, 2006 I'd like to see Ford live long enough to break Reagan's longevity record, just out of spite! I think he'd like that too. A quick google news search learned me that Gerald Ford and the late Rosa Parks are in the inaugural class of Michigan walk of fame inductees.

maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted March 15, 2006 Ford looks in better shape than a few of the other DL top 50, like JD Salinger. Ford was a regular golfer in retirement and I'm not sure if he ever smoked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MyBrainHurts2 4 Posted March 27, 2006 I'd laugh if Nancy Reagan kicked ol' Gerry in the crotch, but that's not going to happen, now is it? If Gerry does live long enough to see 100, you will have forgotten about laughing about it by then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Gerry does live long enough to see 100, you will have forgotten about laughing about it by then. Ahh yes - Old person humor. Gettin kicked in the balls, falling, tripping, Perhaps even throwing fits over nonesense. Midgets also make me crack up. Although in the end - It's what is inside your heart that counts. You shouldn't laugh at people because surely that may e you someday. And yes, what you say - I totally agree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Octopus of Odstock 2,195 Posted March 28, 2006 I predict Gerald Ford will die in a year beginning with 20.. Well, let's put it this way. Iain has also predicted Charlton Heston will die "imminently". If Heston does go in the next two weeks & Ford in 7, then maybe we cut Iain some slack. If not, then Iain needs a new crystal ball... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,195 Posted March 30, 2006 Gerald Ford news Nothing on his health, but he's still alive. But it doesn't look like he travels at all any more. I also like the fact that not many people have won "The Ford Medal", but of those who have, his wife has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
