Kevin Costner Speech

Kevin Costner spoke today at the University of Northern Colorado. I really think he did a nice job.

Vote, I can't say how strongly I wish every one would care enough to do it.

Voted Today


I voted by advanced ballot today. Mail in voting is the BEST way. No lines, no rush, just me in my p.j's taking my time.

On Nov. 4th you'll find me working a poll site from 6 AM to 7 PM. It will be a long day!

This is the most important election I think we have had in a long time. It is important that everyone's vote count!

9 Phrases Men should learn the meaning of

(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . that will bring on a 'whatever').

(8) Whatever: Is a woman's way of saying F-- YOU!

(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.

Homecoming 2008

The daughters are looking so grown up these days. Sydney is the pink (this was my Soph. dress for prom, she shortened it & took off the shoulder ruffle). Anyone see pretty in pink? She is creative like that.

Abbey was going for classy black.

Did You Know???

Link on the words Did You Know??? above for a video.

Education has got to become a priority with our government. I know people are all for the government staying out of healthcare and education but other countries are really pulling ahead of us...in lots of areas.

The next 20 years are going to be very interesting! The world is changing fast.
