A funny thing happened at the supermarket today
While I was doing my shopping on the aisle for cookies and crackers, a lady was coming up from the other direction. She looks at me and says:

"Will you join me in November to get rid of George Bush?"

"I sure will!"

She went on to say that the Republicans will be doing their best to lie and trash Kerry, but that the truth is on Kerry's side. I agreed with her, adding that I will be there to make my vote count on his side. She said "thanks and see you in November", and then she walked away.

I still feel goosebumps.

3. That was an incredible speech!
That was the speech that Kerry needed to make, and he did. I'm just excited for him- it's a good day to be a Democrat.

4. The parking lot attendant at my doctor's office this morning noticed
my Kerry sticker and asked where he could get one. I thanked him, told him, and then gave him mine (I had a couple of replacements at home just in case - this has happened before.) Once I got home, I replaced the sticker, and as I did, a lady walking her dog passed by, saw it, and commented on how great the speech was last night. And, by the way, they were buzzing about it inside my doctor's office, where she has a tray full of voter registration forms handy. She said she's given out about 30 of 'em!
