"I've got to go, Rock. It's allright.
I'm not afraid.
Some time, Rock, when the team is up against it, when things
are wrong and the breaks are beating the boys, tell them to go in
there with all they've got and win just one for the Gipper. I don't
know where I'll be then, Rock, but I'll know about it, and I'll be
happy." <<It will happen; count on it.>>
--Farewell, Ronald Wilson Reagan, President of the United States.
Sorry I'm not old enough to remember much of how you
changed the world, as you were doing it. May your memory be blessed,
