Happy Anniversary!!! 34-Years ago! (And considering current events, this one's timely.)

Popped up as a reminder on my cell phone today.

On this date, 02 April 1984 - Trivial Pursuit removed this question from their board game:

“How many months pregnant was Nancy Reagan when she walked down the aisle with Ronald Reagan?" *

Oddly, Evangelicals had no problem voting for America's first divorced president back then, either.


* Answer: Three.

(One game player remembered he and his friends charged that question to read: "'Just-say-yes' Nancy was known to give the best blowjob in Hollywood. What was her maiden name?&quot

It was a vignette of Ron and Nancy Reagan discussing their marriage.

Nancy turned to Ron and said,

"Oh, how I remember when you proposed. You took me in your arms, gazed deeply in my eyes, and said, 'Whatta ya mean, the rabbit died?'"
