clouds: altostratus opacus, or nimbostratus (gloomy, and pouring rain)Election
The elections is heating up and frankly, it's exciting me. I am astounded at the maneuvers John McCain has made in the last 42 hours. I'm convinced he thinks his political shenanigan's of the last couple of days will help him look like a hero. The truth is it makes him look desperate. To make things worst for McCain Sarah Palin's interview with Katie Couric the other day has made her look like South Carolina's Miss Teen U.S.A.
Here's the actual transcript of her conversation with Katie Couric. Beware, the cringe factor is a 10 out of 10.
COURIC: You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that?
PALIN: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and on our other side, the land-- boundary that we have with-- Canada. It-- it's funny that a comment like that was-- kind of made to-- cari-- I don't know, you know? Reporters--
COURIC: Mock?
PALIN: Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah.
COURIC: Explain to me why that enhances your foreign policy credentials.
PALIN: Well, it certainly does because our-- our next door neighbors are foreign countries. They're in the state that I am the executive of. And there in Russia--
COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?
PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We-- we do-- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to-- to our state.
ME: OH, MY GOD!

Ok, twitter is fun , but it takes commitment to make it worth-your-while. I've spent a good part of the day on twitter because they have a huge Election 2008 live stream going on. Tons of people voicing opinions on anything from candidates (Sarah Palin a hot one), Wall St. (hot), Miss Teen U.S.A. (hahaha), Bush, Washington, David Letterman and of course tonights presidential debate that John McCain "will be" attending. All I can say is fun, fun, fun chatting and posting articles and news blips.
Legally Blond
Last nights production of Legally Blond at the Providence Performing Arts Center was hysterical. I did have my doubts about converting a pretty good movie into a Broadway musical but it works and works well. All the performers were top notch singers and dancers with damn good looking bodies, especially the UPS delivery guy, "Bend and Snap it baby!". Well worth seeing. Loved it!
