As Carter said, the just didn't know. My grandfather was a nuclear physicist and would some days come home in different clothes than the ones he wore to work. Would get contaminated and they would burn his clothes and give him something that he could wear home. Not surprisingly, died of leukemia in 1972.

and don’t ever compare me to FBC again. I ain’t disparaging the man, Jimmy is a great man and great southerner. A friend of mine from Aiken is related to him. Just saying it appears he has nearly finished the race. A race that he ran well.

on a plane to Amsterdam in about '97. He walked up and down the plane aisles shaking hands.

Later, we ran into each other again at a hashish bazaar.

of something Jimmy Buffett once said: "I'd rather die while I'm living than living while I'm dead"....

Surely Jimmy Carter won't be trapped in that human shell much longer...

Wow. He already looks dead.***
