Happy Halloween!

I love Halloween – it’s the only night of the year when you are allowed to wear a costume without being in a play:

Howard Dean (D) Admits That “Single-Payer” Is Never Going to Work

.
Now, mind you, that isn’t what he MEANT to say, but in this interview on today’s “Morning Joe“, that is EXACTLY what he said – without realizing it:

“First off all, in fairness, you have to blame Republicans for some of this because they delayed everything they possibly could, threw as many monkey wrenches into the process as they could…..”

These states didn’t “refuse to accept exchanges”, they merely chose not to accept a bribe money from the Federal Government to set up their own individual state exchanges.  They decided to put the onus of responsibility on the Federal Government to set up these exchanges – which is their right, according to the law.

Happy Birthday, Rachel!

.
It was 27 years ago today that our lives changed in the space of an instant. One second we were a couple, and the next we were a family. It still never ceases to amaze me how seamlessly that transition occurred, and how it felt like things had always been that way.

Love, love, LOVE this picture of a veteran who decided to take one of the Barrycades and deposit it at the White House:

Something Beautiful – “Per Te”

I’ve loved this song since the first time that I heard it; Josh Groban has such an amazing voice, and “Per Te” (from his multi-platiunum album “Closer“)  is just an amazing song – the soaring violins, piano accompaniment, and tympani undertones just stir my soul:

Oh my gosh….

Call Your Mother….

Call 19.
Every once in a while, I get an e-mail from my Mom, asking me “Is everything all right?” – usually because I haven’t called or e-mailed or put up a new blog post in a while.

Well, as you all know, life does get in the way sometimes….

My house isn’t ever going to be a candidate for Better Homes and Gardens (especially right now, as we are in the middle of yet another construction project, which is kicking up even more dust than normal), and Paul is lucky if he gets fed when he comes home from work in the evening.
