Good to hear from you and I hope your dad has a speedy uneventful recovery.

I’m fine. Dad had open heart surgery and I was his care person. Had to go back to Texas and live the Jerry Springer marathon for a few weeks. I am demolished. Must sleep.

Hope you're ok and just out living life. I always worry when regulars disappear. Take care.

I wasn't surprised at all. The losing team usually does not stand and accept the entire organization lost the game, they pick out one of their own and sacrifice them. Kind of like the kicker in football.

I don't know much about the choice, but it sounds like she got some prime shopping in. I was surprised how quickly the McCain campaign came out with the negative news today.

I don't think McCain chose her. I think the party did... but they are turning on her like a pack of rabid dogs now.

Probably about as long as it took McCain to figure out he made a big mistake. I'd love to have a woman as President or VP, but it HAS to be the right one so it isn't seen as a mistake.

Love the avatar by the way, wonder how long it took her to figure it out.
