1. I love the quote below! |
|
"In one term, the Bush administration has destroyed what it has taken a lifetime to build in this country," said Lawrence Gurley, a retired biochemist who drove an hour from his home near Venice and until two years ago was a Republican. "John Kerry and John Edwards give me hope of getting my country back. It has been taken away from us."
How many times have we expressed those concerns? Great statement!

2. They didn't just fail to mention... |
|
They made a point of not mentioning. We are looking at relocating to St. Petes. Any info on the political demographic there? % of Dems to Repukes?

3. St. Pete is 90% geriatrics with no noses |
|
Okay, the no noses part is just an old joke me and my brother shared after visiting mom in St. Pete years ago. The place is a giant retirement home. It is beautiful, some nice beaches a wonderful downtown peir. The no-noses referred to the number of old skin-cancered Floridians walking around with bandages and coverlets on their faces.

9. No noses? How do they smell? |
|
AWFUL!
(Sorry, but I couldn't let a perfectly good punchline go to waste!)

6. I Love Kerry's Sense of Humor |
|
"He recited the similarities between him and Edwards: "We're both lawyers. His name is John, my name is John. He was named People magazine's Sexiest Man of the Year, I read People magazine."
Between this, the hair comments and the brilliant comeback against President Bush yesterday, it seems as if the Kerry campaign finally let the dogs out!
