Hi nicollo! I sure hope it isn't over yet...Appreciate your thoughts..

I just love history...American history...the colonial period & Rev. War...

So, it was wonderful to be stuck somewhere yesterday a.m....with the tv tuned to the Today show, Katie Couric, and ....David McCullough talking about his new book:1776

He provided a wonderful quote which is appropriate for the events of the week, and Memorial Day coming up...

McCullough said that with all the fine ideas produced in Philadelphia and so forth that summer, it was the soldier in the field...in Boston, New York, Long Island, and so forth who secured those ideas

Bravo Mr. McCullough!!

Now the cold which attacked me last weekend is back, and seeing Voinovich cry like a baby on the Senate floor didn't help..What a disgrace!

Sniffling off to bed...

He DID?! Must've happened when I decided I had better be sociable, quit freeping and streaming talk radio, and go visit with the inlaws. What a wuss....
