Touts and Doubts

Everyday I see and hear things I want to tell you about and sometimes I forget. Today, while I still have them swirling around in my head, let me put them down to share with all of you.

TOUTS


Television
Watch March Madness/Final Four-even if you are not a basketball fan, the excitement is palpable.As I have said before, all you really need to do is watch the last 10 minutes of any game! Player to watch:
Isaiah Canaan from Murray State.

Movies
Jeff Who Lives at Home: Susan Sarandon and Jason Segal.

Salmon Fishing In The Yemen: Ewan McGregor and Emily Blunt.

Wine and Food

Colby Red-all proceeds go to heart research and charities. And "my friend" Kathie Lee Gifford, swears it's the best red she has ever had.

Best Venue, Florist, & Band for Important Events

Crystal Plaza-Northfield Ave. Livingston, NJ. Beautiful Space, Superior food and Service. The greatest
                       Staff in the business: professional, kind, attentive. SIMPLY THE BEST! (A special nod
                       Barry, Jason, Nella, Leslie and Rovin).
Spitz and Peck-Northfield Ave. Livingston, NJ. John will tend to any request, any budget. He will make
                         every dream a reality. Extremely sweet, professional,creative and the best florist out
                         there.
Next Faze-       No other band compares! This band will bring the house down. The vocalists and
                        musicians know how to start a party and keep everyone on the dance floor all night.
                        No worries if Jamie is the bandleader-SUPERB.


DOUBTS

Tiger Woods-Really Tiger? You leave the Tournament sponsored by General Motors: Cadillac  and Buick are prominently advertising.  For goodness sakes, a buick was given away for a hole in one.
And your left leg hurts, so you walk to your MERCEDES and drive away. Are you kidding?????
No class and so ungracious..you are my achilles heel!

Dharun Ravi-bias intimidation, invasion of privacy....rough sentence, but they used you as an example
                      so that other students don't perform these "boyish pranks" on vulnerable kids at any age.

Rick Santorum
Newt Gingrich      This group of men will set women back 90 years. Any women who votes republican
Ted Nugent            needs to be institutionalized. We now have to prove the reason for taking birth
Rush Limbaugh      control-are you kidding? Limbaugh should be fired-do not patronize any of his
                              sponsors and stop watching ABC-his boss. And Newt-if you like the zoo so much,
                              go visit with the monkeys-they could teach you a thing or two. Rick-just keep
                              running. Obama say nothing-just watch, sit back and smile. Rick will dissolve the
                              republican party and you, Mr. President will win with ease....These men                  .
                              are dispicable. But, I thank them because Mitt will never get the electoral
                              votes he needs and Obama will win the election. Keep fighting boys!

Wall Trampoline- as an olympic sport? It looks too dangerous, but I think it wil happen. Cirque de
                              Soleil was the group that introduced it. Now it has become the new craze. Check
                              it out.
