It won’t be her for one reason.

No one wants a repeat of 1976 where everyone walks out knowing they nominated the wrong candidate.

As soon as they were eating solid food, my kids and grandkids were overweening.

But the twin 4 year olds are at times not overwhining yet - like when their brother has a toy that he doesn’t want to share. Or when both want to play Roboblox on the same OC at the same time.

What a ridic thought to have Sarah Palin as mystery speaker. Good grief. It’s probably W, he is the last winner we had.

Tim Tebow

Speaking of football, they said on the news last night that Penn State is going to cease playing “Sweet Caroline” at their football games.

My wife looked at me puzzled.

Hands — touching hands
reaching out
touching me
touching you

oh that would be brilliant

They really should just disband the team, or the school, really.

No way. Maybe Dick Cheney, or Liz Cheney.

Maybe hologram Ronald Reagan.

I didn’t know they were. Pitt started doing it 4-5 years ago. The self-flagellating has got to stop.

RME. typical sarahbot response. i do not think she’s remotely schooled enough for that job, no matter that we have novice in there now, Sarah Palin is not the answer. Charisma and conservative ideals are not enough to be president. She has, as of yet, done nothing to improve her bonafides for that job.

Too big to fail. Too much money tied up into conference schedules and TV and the local economy, too.
