I thought I should bring this to everyones attention because it is such a big even. I am deeply sadded to tell you that our 38th president has passed away at 11:49pm tuesday night.
Former President Gerald Ford, who became president in 1974 after the resignation of Richard Nixon, died Tuesday at age 93. Ford, the oldest surviving former U.S. president, died Tuesday, his wife, Betty Ford said. The former first lady's statement did not say where he died or give a cause of death.

Bow Down before the one you serve, your going to get what you deserve... I guess we got the answer on that one. I found the whole nixon-ford thing stupid really. They were just the first presidents to get caught doing that sort of thing... Good president though...I guess.
