So a lot to cover since I have slowed down on my posts lately. There is a reason for that, I was trying to keep the post regarding what I want my children to learn visible for at least a week. But it has been a week now, so it is time to move on.
1. Family: nothing huge to report, life continues more or less as normal. Had the occasion to participate in the Mission Medical Clinic Burn the Mortgage party. I guess I had not fully realizd what a huge thing the clinic is and what Marcella has done with it. And now I am truly impressed by what she does and had done. And impressed by all of the volunteers who work at the clinic, that is truly a wonderful thing.
2. Politics: Well it's down to 4 real candidates, 2 on each side. And I am pleased with the survivors, I never really trusted Edwards, he seemd a little too much like an old style slick Southern Democrat. But it's still not clear who the nominees will be, and if the battle will result in a clear winner for either party. I guess the best thing to hope for now is for the Repbulicans to fight down to the wire, nominate someone the Political Christian Right dislikes enough to force Huckabee into a third party drive, splitting off that vote come November.
3. Sports: I think New England will win, and I don't think it will be close, unless there is a major injury. I think that Belichik and Brady know that in order to for their dynasty to truly be set up there alongside the great Steeler's, 49ers, Cowboy's dynasties, they need at least one thorough dominating victory in the Super Bowl, and what better way to cap off the perfect season? So, I would not be surprised to see them come out going for the throat right away, and not letting the pedal off the gas.
