Today, November 5, 2006, marks yet another unforgettable milestone in our nation's history. On another November, 17 years ago, the Berlin Wall came down. November 9, 1989. It was the the crowning achievement of the last genuinely great President of the 20th Century, Ronald Reagan. For those still on the fence about voting this Tuesday, honor our beloved Ronnie by voting a straight Republican ticket.

Good evening. How are you? I think I should make me something to eat. Have not had anything today. Guess that would explain my headache. Oh well, it sure has been a very interesting day. I stayed up last night until about 5 AM watching the Saddam stuff. Maybe they should keep Clark over there but the way that judge talked, they do not want him either. Poor thing. He must have his feelings hurt being talked to like that.

Historic is a word that's way overused by the media, but this Man's presidency has been marked by a number of genuinely historic events. The Hussein verdict today is one of them.

His will be a presidential library well worth visiting for generations to come.

This sweet photo is from Nov. 2, but I'm reposting it today in honor of their anniversary.

Forgot to add that yesterday was a good day since State beat Bama. Never thought I would see the day when the Bama team was just as bad as State's.

I wish you would have joined us on the LIVE thread last night as we watched the verdict come in! I stayed up and I'm paying the price today --- dragging around and tired.

I have to say I am so glad he did not put that hat on. He is very smart unlike our senator from Mass who loves costumes.
