LOL...that just brought back a lot of memories...I got a tv for the kitchen during the 2000 recount..
We should have bought stock in Sony or something. LOL
We never got our tree up that year. I gained 5 lbs from sitting at the computer and Mr. Peach's golf game improved because he played nearly every day just to get away from the crap on television about the recount.
And then, who can forget Rita who breathlessly announced that Gore had won. SHeesh. Nearly gave me a heart attack.
Around Thanksgiving 2000, the RNC sent someone by to remove my Bush Cheney sign.
I went running down the drive hollering at him: "Oh no you don't! That thing is staying right there until this is decided."
