Life when CIndy is away....
So my wife, Cindy, is away in Africa and I am Mr. mom for the week and a half. And I have this feeling that everything is going well, things are being accomplished, kids are getting where they need to go and bills are being paid, the Christmas decorations and stuff are getting all boxed up and furniture re-arrange and put back in its place.. I even am catching up on various chores in the house. I am feeling good about myself, even proud and feeling like bragging about it. Here’s the point, my wife organized everything this week, and all but one child is with her in Africa. And yet I feel like I deserve some award for stuff she does all the time and with all the kids here. It must be something in the male gene, I think…I love my wife, she’s great!

interesting times
Is it just me or does anyone else agree that the only really interesting debate was actually just a conversation /interview by the only non-professional media person: Rick Warren.
I like debates but the last one was a snoozerama (McCain v Obama).
Also is anyone aware of the fact that that congress (and agressive community groups like ACORN that have been forcing the issue at the local level) have been relaxing mortgage standards since the 80's. The Clinton further pursued this by throwing taxpayer money to help and by starting the Mac and Mae loosening of credit standards. republicans were also involved and by the time Bush in 2003 tried to curtail and add some oversight (he was rebuffed by a partisan congressional committees) ; but frankly it was probably too late even then.
What I don't see is any justice. people involved being indicted and going to prison. several legislators were very involved in the mess and are we naive enough to think they are the very ones to help resolve it?
Am I the only one concerned that ACORN has been indicited/suspected/accused of voter registration frausde thought the US and as recently and this current political season. Voter Fraud eats at the heart of a democratic state, and ACORN does this partially with our our own tax dollars and local univeriosty support, some would call it slave student labor. Why is this still condoned?
