My friend Denise turned 65 and retired last week. Her kids and grandkids surprised her with a party. She is happy and healthy and surrounded by loved ones.

Two years ago, she was surrounded by loved ones as well. She was sick, weak, and bald from the chemo, and they didn't know if she'd make it.

I love a happy ending.

Hi, I'm bored. What's your name?

Well, one week exactly before I hit the airport and head out you guys' way...so excited! I can't wait to see the original Oscar Mayer Wienermobile at the Henry Ford Museum, hee!

I'll be there next Friday for a field trip for my kid. You have to lay in the hot dog thing that's there and have someone take a picture of you! :P

Have a great trip out here.

And why does it ask for your race and whether or not you're Hispanic?

Does it really matter? I can see race if it is something that asks for physical characteristics such as hair and eye colour as well.

But why "Hispanic, regardless of race"? Does it matter when I buy something? Is not my money just as good as the next hombre?

Where I live, people are mostly Norwegian. Sure, they're the majority here, but I bet they're a minority somewhere. Shouldn't there be some sort of tracking system so that the government can make sure that they get the correct lutefisk? (As opposed to the Swedish lutfisk, which is almost palatable.)

I work with people from a lot of different countries, and nothing ticks them off more than waiting years for the paperwork to be accepted, finally coming here, struggling to learn English, having people yell at them when they don't do it perfectly, establishing themselves with jobs, becoming citizens, and then seeing the government spend their tax dollars because illegals have the "right" to have everything translated for them so they don't have to be bothered to learn English.

I got puzzle books for Christmas. One was a word search one. One of the puzzles was the Blackhawks players' names. I noticed only 16 were listed, so I started to try to remember who the others were. The first name I checked was Koko. Poor guy wasn't included in the puzzle. Two-time Stanley Cup Champion and he still gets no respect.

How is it that these women that lose so much weight on these weight loss commercials look so good in bathing suits? How did they get rid of all that cellulite...photoshop?

hard to say. I look like the before pictures, despite the years at the gym. I assume there's a bit of photoshopping going on there in the after pics.

Speaking of photoshop, the Round One photoshop thread in general forum is a riot. :D

I woke up yesterday fresh from a dream where a Red Wing player was holding up a newspaper with the headline "Red Wings 4- Sabres 1".

Not enough to make me run and change my picks. Just wanted to share.
