He is a democrat but was raised by a republican mother and seems to realize that family values of healthcare in America, especially for our elderly and our children, is very important as well as education.  He has a straightforward way of speaking and acutally answering questions that I really like.

No politician is perfect, but his honesty is refreshing, and I hope he has a good shot.  Hilary and him running together would be an interesting concept.  hmmm

quoted as saying, "for the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country."

This statement made me wince. I can't help but think of all of the GREAT wives of American Presidents who would never say such things about this great country we call home. For the first time in her adult life? What's so bad about this GREAT country that she isn't proud of?

I don't know. Is it just me or do others agree that we should have a First Lady in the White House who will stand behind her country through thick and thin? What's going to happen if in a year or two something else happens and she is no longer proud of this country? What kind of First Lady will she be then?

I think you should be president if you love America, born and raised in America, are Christian, and have solid convictions, and believe in the constitution.

I have been a Minnesota Vikings fan since I was old enough to understand what a first down was.  I was around 8 years old and it was in the mid 70's and they were good.  Didn't hurt that my dad was a Vikes fan and they wore my favorite color.  Tarkenton was a blast to watch, constantly eluding defenders.  We had our Purple People Eaters (Page, Eller, Larsen and Marshall) who ate up defenses.  These were the days where you could actually touch the QB and almost rip his head off without getting flagged. 

Of course, The Vikes were always the first team to do bad things:

1.  First team to lose 4 Super Bowls.

2.  Only team to have a D-lineman pick up a fumble and run it to the wrong end zone, scoring a safetly for the other team.

3.  First team to go 15-1 and not make the SB (thank you Pittsburgh - we no longer stand alone).

4.  First team to score most points in a season (556) and not go to the Super Bowl).

5.  First and only team to trade away 17 players/draft picks for an over-the-hill Herschel Walker who did nothing for our team. 

The list goes on, but you know what?  I've been with this team for 32 years and will be back for a 33rd.  I must either be mentally ill or a masochist. 

BTW, I'm going to see them play in Cleveland on Sept. 13.  I've seen them 4 times live and I've had 2 wins, 2 losses.  All were preseason games.  This will be my first regular season game.  And yes, I'll be dressed in full Viking regalia.  I've seen then at Fawcett stadium against the Seahawks in the HOF game, twice at Foxboro against the Patriots and once at the Meadowlands against the Jets and I'll tell you what - the Jets were some extremely rude fans but from what I hear, they don't hold a candle to Giant, Philly or Raiders fans. 

Any other pro football nuts?

Oh, and though I rarely get into college games, I now root for Ohio State since my nephew goes there. 

can you name one of your favorites by him?  I must have dozens of favorites, but I would have to put Lilly, Rosemary and Jack of Hearts right at the top five. I also love Forever Young.  Birth name is Robert Zimmerman.

Boston did rather well...At any World Series ya get a really exciting experience, especially if you're in the  nosebleed seats.  Cat

What'd you all think of that blindside tonight?  I loved every minute of it.  While I'm not a fan of Natalie, I don't much care for Eric, either.  I'm pulling for Amanda, but unless she wins immunity, I don't think Parv and Cerie are going to take her to the final 3. 

This has been the best season yet of Survivor.  The blindsides have been awesome!  I still can't believe Eric was that stupid to trust 4 women.

The first time I caught the show I didn't like it, then one weekend I had nothing to do so watched all the episodes (HBO on demand), now I love the show.  I just found a clip of an interview with the guy who play Jason (Sookie's brother).  He's hot in the show and what a cutie (Aussie) in real person.  Seems like a truly genuine nice guy (which is rare in Hollywood).  If your interested I'm posting the link below.

Some of my friends went to the Saints/Bears game and were amazed and ashamed for the rudeness of the fans.  He is a high school football coach so he has seen some team rivalries some severe, but never like this.  Being booed, being followed and surrounded in the bathroom, etc.  Terrible and shame on the people of Chicago

I'm thinking they could cancel this show now and have done with it.  I've watched this show since day one and this is the first time I've come to the end of the season and not really cared if it came back next year.  There are no solid characters left to care about.  Abby and Luka are married but Luka will only be in a handful of episodes next year.  Personally, I wanted Neela with Ray because, as far as I'm concerned, she has NO chemistry with Tony.  There are NO major players to carry this show through another season.  Archie and Hope are cute but not solid enough.  Pratt is just there.  So who does that leave? 

I missed a bit of yesterday's Dancing with the Stars finale show, but looks like Helio and Julianne overall had the strongest performance.  

What happened to Mel and Maks' freestyle?  They were like kinda deflated or something. 

IMO, Marie and Jonathan usually come up with pleasant surprises, but last night's freestyle was a real puzzler - I am not sure why Jonathan would agree to choreograph such a cutesy (yawn) routine when the competition is so fast and fierce.  Marie was a bit too vocal with the judges...after all, they are the "experts."

When I shopped for one of my nieces at Circuit City, I stumbled on a Nancy Drew computer game.  I don't have kids, so I'm out of the loop I know, but I thought that was cool.  We loved those books when we were kids, but I don't know if my sister has introduced her daughter yet. 

My niece is 9, and youngest recommended age is 10.  But it was only $20, so we got her one other little hand-held game that was only about $6, so at least she can play that right away.
