Former President (41) George H.W. Bush intended to mark his 85th birthday in the same way he marked 75 and 80; with a tandem parachute jump. The weather in Maine may not cooperate resulting in a delay until tomorrow.
It is reported that the tandem jump would be with the Army Golden Knights Parachute Team.
It’s nice to know that despite the ec0nomic troubles in our nation and the record trillion dollar deficits we can still afford to add this additional perk to the modest pension and secret service costs for the former one term President.
Unless, of course, he pays the expenses out of his own pocket. Somehow I doubt that.
Happy Birthday, Mr. President, I hope you enjoy the jump at our expense (and feel free to correct me if I’m wrong about that part). Those of us who cannot afford such luxuries will covet your opportunities.
