If Hillary Clinton wins the Democratic Nomination, I am voting for McCain. In fact, I would vote for George Bush over Hillary... Does anybody else feel this way? RH

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." OK, I am not a constitutional lawyer, so can somebody please explain how we turned "Congress shall make no law..." into no

I got an email today that posed this little question... Enough to make one's head explode, really. Which got me to thinking about all the smugasaurouses out there on both sides of this debate. Which made me want to toss my two cents into the mix. Evolution, as set forth by Chuck Darwin in The Origin of Species does a pretty good job of explaining all the creepy crawly things roaming around on

The phone rang way too early in the morning, I was still fast asleep and still slightly hung over from the bottle (or 2?) of Cold Duck Gina and I downed in her sisters Z the night before. Typical, I thought. What idiot is calling at 8:00 on a Saturday morning? Like, don't they know people are still sleeping? Plus the phone was right next to my bed and just kept ringing... they just wouldn't go

I hit one of those funny buttons on the top of my browser by mistake and landed on the former news site, CNN. The first item to catch my attention was the Lufthansa plane trying to make a landing in a very windy Hamburg, Germany. Perhaps it was because I watched the video 3 or 4 times, that CNN got it into its head that I would like to read more articles having to do with planes, travel and

Here's one of life's little pitfalls that I am guessing most parents haven't warned their children against: Becoming a Cyber Hacker! Let me explain! This morning I was snoozing away when my son Harvey woke me up in a panic. "Mom, my PayPal account has been hacked" "Huh?" (me) "Somebody hacked into my PayPal account and changed the password and all the security questions" "Huh? How did they..." (

On a rare trip to a Walmart store, I ran smack into a $1.00 DVD Sale - as luck would have it, the selection was a Retro's treasure! I snagged Episodes of Dragnet, the Dick Van Dyke show and my old favorite Groucho Marx as host of the show "You Bet Your Life". If you happen upon any of these oldies and have a few extra dollars, these old shows are fascinating to watch, and far more entertaining

My daughter called me yesterday to see if I was going to see Hillary Clinton in Santa Barbara at her so-called "Town Hall Meeting" at UCSB (The local university). I hadn't heard Madame Hillary would be in town, but since the Barak Obama event turned out to be such a pleasant surprise, I thought why not? So I sprung my daughter from school, and off we went. I also phoned up hubby Harry at work
