Well, the earlier you're exposed to the good stuff, the more you tend to like it.

They used to think that band students got higher grades because smart kids tended to play instruments. Then they did research and realized that playing in the band is part of what MADE the kids smarter!

LOL you know what I mean. Boy, you can tell my hubby has been in the desert for wayyy tooo long. They are saying in May they will be home. Hoorraayy!

[sheikdetailfeather]

Has anyone mentioned Leon Russell?

No! But I will. I have an album with "Of Thee I Sing" and a few other good songs on it.

[Carolinamom]

Looking forward to tomorrow's DOSE! Laura's dress and Dubya's tux need more discussion!

[Howlin]

Thanks........get a good one of that new tux, please!

I have to tie all my husband's regular ties when he wears one...I have no idea how to tie a bow tie.

She is a babe, isn't she?

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Whats a dose?

I can't put my finger on it but it seems so appropriate that Bush eulogized reporters tonight.

With all the information that has come out about WMD's and the link up with Bin Laden and Saddam, just seems like the journalists that we all know are no longer viable.

Thanks for the headsup.

[ohioWfan]

LOL! No. It was a GOOD thing about Youngstown.......sorta like me! hehe

[Carolina]

Aaaaaakkkkk! I just got back and missed it all. I hope C-Spam replays it. Did Michael Moore show up?

[AGreatPer]

gidgetgirl13, Matt Drudge is a great guy. I met him at the "March for Justice" at the Premier Hotel in D.C. with Jim Robinson, etc. Was a great day.

He's a bit pretentious, non-the-less, a great guy.

[CedarDave]

Just want to hear W's remarks...

[nicmarlo]

, they just showed an update of their schedule at the bottom of the screen, and I missed it.

I did too, I craned my head around the wall too late and caught just the end. But, I swear, I saw it earlier say it was replaying at 11:15 p.m. EST

[Jewels1091]

If he did I didn't see him

[azGOPgal]

I agree. Last years was much better. Do you remember the slide show that Bush did? Was that last year or the year before? I think he showed a naked picture of Jeb. They probably went with R. Charles because of the war, but I think they should stick with a comdian for entertainment. People tend to stay in their seats better. Plus I think they would have been ok if Dennis Miller did it, since he respects our military and the PResident so much.

Maybe because its April 26th

Yikes, what a FINALE and a great camera shot showing "W" walking away from Brokaw (with such power in his stride) as he entered AirForce One. Brokaw seemed genuinely grateful.

She is a babe, isn't she?
