I thought the exact same thing when I found out. That and "I guess his heart just skipped too many beats."
Remember Chevy Chase used to do the Ford impression on SNL? He'd always talk to the ceramic dog Liberty and fall all over the place. The funniest part of that being: Chevy Chase looked and sounded nothing like Gerald Ford nor did he try to. Also, everything I know about Watergate comes from National Lampoon's
Missing White House Tapes album, in which Chevy is heavily featured.
We can also remember him for the synchro-trip with Homer Simpson.
In contrast to Reagan (the last president to become worm food), Ford lastest a few more months, had many more metal facilities working for him, and didn't completely fuck up the economy.
RIP Mr. President. Enjoy your trip to the afterlife.

That it's an obvious joke wouldn't make it any less funny if it happened. The important thing is that I would be amused.
