Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Biden took on the mantle of the "worst living ex-president" thanks to Jimmy Carter's passing.
Think that's the reason Carter finally gave up the ghost. He vowed not to die the worst President in history - the Joe Biden came along.
That's the reason George HW Bush lived so long - he vowed not to die until he could read H Ross Perot's obituary but Perot beat him again.

Seems he placed a different sort of value on it than some might expect. "To share these items with the world" Yeah, right.
Should have guessed a divorced guy like Aldrin would have a different need of money. Still like Buzz.
