I'm originally a Yankee and damn proud of it!

Palin I don't know anybody else, but I get a little uncomfortable with the whole "God is speaking to me" stuff. Let's leave God where he belongs...in CHURCH! Her religious views creep me out, and quite frankly even if I was Republican, I'd be very skeptical about having someone with such...

Speaking of safety My brother is an electrician and he recommends that all heat generating appliances such as irons, toasters, coffee pots, etc, be unplugged in not in use.

Too bad it was not restored to one of the eight original colors. My grandmother had one until the mid 70's...wish I had it today.

Bring it on Ralph, I'll be ready!

11/3/1960 "He's a Rebel" by The Crystals. Interesting, in many ways I guess I am a "rebel" lol
