Thirty-eight million people watched Barack Obama at the stadium in Denver.  There were 84,000 full-throated supporters who turned out there at the field.  The Republicans fired back today.  They say, ‘We can also fill a stadium with thousands of screaming people.  For example, the Superdome during Hurricane Katrina.’

That Moment Just Before The Pain Begins

Surrounded
An explorer in the deepest Amazon suddenly finds himself surrounded by a bloodthirsty group of natives.  Upon surveying his situation, he says quietly to himself, “I’m screwed.”

There is a ray of light from the sky and a voice booms out: “No you are NOT screwed.  Pick up that stone in front of you and bash the head of the chief.”

So the explorer picks up the stone and proceeds to bash in the head of the chief.  He is breathing heavily while standing above the lifeless body.  Surrounding him are the 100 native warriors with a look of shock on their faces.

The voice booms out again: “Okay.......NOW you’re screwed!”

Tracey worked late again yesterday so we went early for breakfast at the Cracked Barrel.  All went well until we got caught in a monsoon rain on the way home on our scooters.  That was not so much very good fun!  I don’t like riding in the rain and I was all wet and squishy by the time we got home.

I got an email from one of the censors of the opinion page at the Journal Star online site.  It seems he is upset because I was “name calling”.  I said somebody was ignorant.  He wants me to stick to the facts.  On an opinion page.  Go figure.

The political scene has gotten so wacky I can’t even force myself to watch TV.  I can’t imagine how a pregnant unwed 17 year old is now the poster child for GOP family values and her mother is a “good mother” for making her keep the child.  How about birth control?  How about not getting pregnant at all?  Ordinarily I wouldn’t think it was anybody’s business but this dame wants to be our Vice-President and I don’t want her “family values” made into law.  We already have too many teenage unwed mothers.
