Gliding and Peeling

Thursday, Jun. 05, 2008 - 12:46 a.m.

Oh, the Glide from Verizon Wireless sure looks cute.

However, I'm still quite wedded to my old E815.

But I definitely know what I want when it's time for an upgrade.

I suppose it's indecent for me to feel a burgeoning wave of relief washing over me as far as the Presidental candidates are concerned.

Unfortunately I also think it might be too soon. We'll have to see what happens in the running-mate category.

I felt like this before, when Eliot Spitzer got his bad little self caught with a hooker, and I have that same feeling Johnny Smith got at the end of The Dead Zone when he stopped Greg Stillson's political career.

At this point, Obama needs to choose a running mate that is anybody but that lying, resume-padding, Michigan ballot squatting, Robert Kennedy invoking, sudden amnesia when placing left hand on a Bible during testimony-ing, crying in public Hillary Rodham Clinton.

She lost her own campaign with her methods and choices, and nobody is to blame but her. Not Obama, not the DNC, not Michigan, not Florida, and not Sinbad. Having her husband float those obnoxious and presumptive Vice Presidential Candidate Dream Team balloons on her behalf was the very last straw.

Thank the gods it's over, or it will be on Saturday. She's pledged to support Obama.

Now let's see if she follows through.

In other news, I'm still peeling. Woo. I'm not even going to bother vacuuming the recliner until next week.

I'm still ingesting a lot of yogurt, but I keep falling off the sugar wagon and it's costing me some integrity on some areas of my skin. Ack.

Otherwise, all is well.

Have a good Thursday!

I'd have to agree about adding Hillary to the ticket. But who else makes a good addition to the ticket? Edwards? Reminds me too much of Quayle. Basically, who is the Johnson to Obama's Kennedy?

Well, in all fairness -- I could put my hand on a stack of fifteen copies of The Bible and feel as guilt-ridden about a sudden bout of amnesia as, say -- putting my hand on the same number of copies of "The Pelican Brief". *wink* Love you!

Jamie, yes, but you don't market yourself as a believer, which makes all the difference. Love you, too! xoxo
