Pretty big day for Texas! I can't believe how close it is!!

GAds, I didn't realize George Stephanopoulos had aged so much. Was it really THAT long ago when we all made fun of how young he was?!? It's official... if George looks that old, then I'm TRULY old.

What a bizarre primary season...

Nope, too depressing. I'm watching The Colbert Report and waiting for dh to come home and bring me some Swedish fish. Love those things.

Where are you that you are four hours behind me? West coast is only two hours behind...

:eek:OK - I'm not going to the "old" place. I've decided that George Stephanopoulus (sorry for the mangled spelling) just did too much tanning as a teenager or something.

The kids are finishing up a movie and then I plan to put the news on to see the results.

Yeah, that's it. Too much tanning. Yeah. :)

Funniest comment overheard at the precinct today (from good friend who manned the polling station)... "When are the carcasses meeting?" LOL

And a schoolroom with a fold-out sofa. So, come on over!

Although there was that mongoose in there that one day...just a warning. ;)

:D:D:eek: This is giving me a really scary visual of people pushing dead bodies from corner to corner of hotel ballrooms. Too funny!!!!

Wow! I had to Google 'Hawaii' and 'mongoose' for I had no idea that they were (non-native) natives.

What a thing to have turn up in your schoolroom! And to think I get mad about squirrels...squirrels are not carnivorous! :eek:

It's just a good thing DH found it and not me. If *I* had found it there I just would have shut the door with a resounding "I expect you to be gone when I return."

LOL! You and me both!

Surely the mongoose has a redeeming quality... wasn't it a mongoose that killed the snake in Riki Tiki Tavi? Oh that's right... Hawaii doesn't have snakes... nevermind :)

See, I was thinking I'd bring some snakes to trade for a mongoose. ;) My dc would be thrilled, I'm sure. And they'd probably call it Riki. :D

that's pretty funny! E. and I ushered for AD Players "Peter and the Wolf" - this is the last week and it's very very well done. The girl who plays the cat should be in "Cats"!

I did turn on the TV when we got home but I kept falling asleep (could have something to do with the electric blanket, ahhhh :)

well, we already know we have dead people voting in elections --the comment rings true in more ways than one, lol.


At least Ron Paul kept his Congressional seat. One campaign down, time to focus on the next. movin' right along :D

nah --I'm convinced a lot of it is artificial aging to make him LOOK "wiser".

GW's eyes don't blink as much as they did when he was running --they must've given him eye drops or something :eek:. Didn't they make G. HW Bush's hair grayer to keep him looking as old as Barb?? I swear they grayed Clinton's hair too to make him look older and "wiser" lol.
