1) GreatMartin (me) very seldom will write a political blog though he has, stupidly,
made comments on people's blogs and got raked over the coals for
it--mainly when I asked for facts. With that said I must state that I was extremely proud of Hillary Clinton when she faced the anti-Obama,
Republicans are afraid she may run for President (and win) in 2016--she
was honest, straight forward, said how she felt, accepted the blame as
much as McCain (whatever happened to this man? The past few years he
has gone over the edge) wanted to blame her boss she told him, and the
rest, that the buck stopped at her desk--she was honest with her
feelings about the 4 dead Americans. Most important was her question
regarding "What difference did it make whether it was a video or guys
walking down the street...?" I really don't think she will run
for President but she did a super job as First Lady, NY Senator and
Secretary of State. Thanks for your service Hillary!

2) I saw "Wicked" two years ago and will be seeing it again next Thursday!

3)
Is it just me or do the new TV smoking ads turn you off as much as they
do me to the point I turn them off--which is no way to get someone to
stop smoking!

4) Doctor called me yesterday to tell me I have gout and that I would have to give up steaks and other red meats--my response? HA! I am now taking ANOTHER pill! UGH!

5)
Regarding the picture on top--Allen and I went to the Courtyard for
lunch again this week but Kimberly had the day off. We had Lee as our
server and he did a good job. Allen had the Turkey club and I had the
Roast Beef and  Swiss on rye sandwich both being good--looks like the 
Courtyard is a winner! After we went to Double Dippers which had opened
as Gelato Station--no more gelato just all kind of Hershey's ice cream so we were forced ( like the guy behind the counter twisted our arms!) to have ice cream.

6) Tomorrow we are goping to The Gateway Theatre to see "Quartet". Look for my review tomorrow night.

7) After going to the Post Office, CVS,
Winn-Dixie, The Dollar Tree and The Home Depot we went all over looking
for a place for Allen to get keys made--it was almost impossible!!! I
didn't realize getting a duplicate made today was so difficult!

8) Now I am waiting to find out whether we won the Lotto and/or Powerball Saturday night--don't worry when we do I will still be blogging on Sunday!
