Go Cougars!

It's Football Season again!!

What I love about football is that you can talk to the most random people about football. I love that fact. I love that fact that people will spew facts at you from a game play in the last decade...its great. I love that everyone has an opinion about football or a player or a coach or the franchise itself. I love the charaters that come out and watch the drama of it all upfold...its amazing. Who is going to be the stating quarterback, who got traded, who got injured and who got a new big $$$ contract!! Its interesting. So, yeah baby...I am back in the thick of it!! Can't wait for Sunday!!

Healthcare Reform Threats! Ugh! NO WAIT...I wanna to read it first!!

What is up with Obama threatening to push a healthcare reform bill through?

"Obama strongly suggested that Democrats will try to pass a sweeping overhaul without GOP support, by using controversial Senate budget rules that would disallow filibusters. And then, he said, this fall's elections would write the verdict on who was right.".

HUH??? So, Obama is going to use some controversial rule so he can get his bill passed? And the if its' right ...you will see it in the vote?? Does anyone believe that in six months to a year we are going to know the long term effects of this bill?

I am not here to diss the President...I just think that the American people should know more about this bill and what is in it. I don't think I am ignorant & I would like it to read like my health policy I have now. So, I can read it and compare it and actually see if it makes sense...right now I pay about $8,000 a year for medical/dental care plus copays, prescriptions ect...and if I have to pay more...ugh. And I have HEALTH INSURANCE!!! And I believe I am lucky.

Suggestions? Help?

What is wrong with America?

What is wrong with America? I can't figure it out.

But, what I do wonder about...is why aren't we spending more on the education for our children? We are so worried that everyone get a "fair" education that many students who are average or above average get the short end of the stick. It truly bothers me. Either the money goes to help the lowest of low or the supreme...but what about the middle?

And then I ask...why is the middle class losing ground?? Hmmmm...we are the middle....I don't know if I make sense but the middle is falling out of this country...

Questions? Suggestions??

It is a bright sunny day for September. I reflect on ALL the football that is coming up this weekend and season for that matter and rub my hands together in anticipation!!

I can't wait to see BYU play Tulane...and hope they haven't been reading their press. I am looking forward to how it will all really fall out in the BCS....does the Mountain West Team have a chance at a National Championship?? Dunno know...it is too early to tell but it will be fun to watch!!

I have been looking forward to watching Tony, Big Ben, Payton Manning & Money Manning. It should be an interesting season, with Farve back again. I will miss watching Tony throw to T.O., I am interested in my 49ers...I still have hope that they will improve this year. I wanna see the Chargers goooooooo! I don't really love 'em but what the heck.

I am excited that I am going to Houston see the Houston Texans play. It will be my FIRST NFL game ever...it will be so exciting to be in that moment but for now:

Here it comes!! NFL/College Football Season!! So Happy! FOR REAL

Walter L. Cronkite, Jr.
November 4, 1916 – July 17, 2009

Cronkite's farewell statement:

“ This is my last broadcast as the anchorman of The CBS Evening News; for me, it's a moment for which I long have planned, but which, nevertheless, comes with some sadness. For almost two decades, after all, we've been meeting like this in the evenings, and I'll miss that. But those who have made anything of this departure, I'm afraid have made too much. This is but a transition, a passing of the baton. A great broadcaster and gentleman, Doug Edwards, preceded me in this job, and another, Dan Rather, will follow. And anyway, the person who sits here is but the most conspicuous member of a superb team of journalists; writers, reporters, editors, producers, and none of that will change. Furthermore, I'm not even going away! I'll be back from time to time with special news reports and documentaries, and, beginning in June, every week, with our science program, Universe. Old anchormen, you see, don't fade away; they just keep coming back for more. And that's the way it is: Friday, March 6, 1981. I'll be away on assignment, and Dan Rather will be sitting in here for the next few years. Good night."


May your new journey be fruitful!
