I finally was able to go for a bike ride today. The weather was warm enough and the wind died down somewhat (10 to 15 mph, down from 30 mph) from yesterday, so I took my new bike out for a spin. I went to the local library and back. Coming back was a lot… Continue reading Untitled

Yahoo! News – Laura Bush Says Gay Marriage ‘Shocking’ – Shocking, just utterly shocking. 😉 I liked Laura Bush’s quote, “I think people ought to have that opportunity to debate it, to think about it, to see what the American people really want to do about the issue.” It’s almost as if she thinks America… Continue reading Untitled
