Maybe everyone knows this, but I think it's important to mention anyway.

November 5th is the day on which Reagan wrote the famous letter announcing his Alzheimer's disease. Personally, I'm donating to Paul's campaign in the former president's honor, not because of any movie or British holiday.


...I now begin the journey that will lead me into the sunset of my life. I know that for America there will always be a bright dawn ahead...

It is actually a rather solemn day and I hope the mainstream media do not spin it too negatively.

I have a sick a sense of humor as anyone, but there is entirely nothing funny about alzheimers. It's an ugly disease which causes more mental pain to the family than you can imagine if not having experienced it.

The true definition of humor IMO is irony.
So, it is funny... and it can be done respectfully.

That is really cool of you. I totally forgot it was the anniversary day for that letter from Regan. :D
