The Presidents HealthCare Round Table

The Obama HealthCare Round Table this past week appeared to be an over glorified photo-op to me. Was anything of substance decided at this event? From what I saw on the news after work, that answer is a resounding no! I actually listened to some of the back and forth between the President, the Dem's and Republicans on my way home on POTUS on Sirius Radio and was not impressed. The President chose to interrupt anytime he saw fit but let no one interrupt him. It was all alot of hot air. Of course all of the left leaning nightly news programs fawned over the .... what did one of the anchors call it? Historic! Hmmmm. Historic.... A high mark for a inconsequencial event if you ask me. Why not have a round table on how to put America back to work or help people keep from walking away from their homes as they continue to do in droves where I live. Now that might be historic!

Yeah USA Men's Hockey

The USA men won their Semi-Final today to set up a potential rematch with the Canadian's! WoooHooo!

Olympic Gold for Canada's Women

Canada's Women's Ice Hockey Team won gold this afternoon over the USA's women. Congrats and great goal tending on both sides in a 2 - 0 game. It was great television if you had the chance to watch!

Adopt a Greyhound

After seeing the Greyhounds up for adoption at the Bakersfield Home and Garden show last weekend, we met tonight with a Greyhound's of America rep with her Grey named Ellie. We were so excited. It is up to them if we are accepted to adopt... not us. Well... we were accepted! Yeah! We have 2 females here in Bakersfield that we will meet and see if we are a fit for them and for them... us.We have another huge pool in SoCal that we can visit and see how that would work for us and them also so here we go! Colby our beagle was so good with Ellie...we were shocked. WoooHooo!

Tiger and Elin

I can't belive that Tiger Woods wife is considering staying with him. I assume most everybody heard what he said Friday? He felt entitled to persue his hearts desire where it came to women. Because he "worked hard". mmmmm... You know what....he said "I do" to Elin and that meant she was his forever. Don't get married if you are not ready for that committment bub!!!

Toyota

Toyota's troubles are very disheartning for all Americans or it should be. Toyota builds the majority of their vehicles that are sold here in the states...here in the states. Their slow down only impacts the US economic woes even more. Hopefully they will rectify their issues and mend their image. We need them to recover as the rest of our economy and especially the auto industry recovers....

Canada's Olympic's

Canada's Vancouver Olympic's have been stunning.... For the USA! Due to serval glitches at venues and the terrible loss of a luge competitor, Canada has had a problematic Olympic's in 2010. They spent a ton of Canadian dollars on their "Own the Podium" campaign and for what so far? Mmmmm... not much? But the Vancouver area and Whistler Creek are gorgeous!! They do have that! Gotta give 'em that huh?

USA vs Canada

What a great Olympic Hockey Game. USA v Canada - 5 - 3. WooooHoooo!

USA vs Canada

What a great 1st period in the USA v Canada Olympic hockey game. Wow! Ryan Miller is performing great in goal!!

NASCAR is Probably Embarrased

The crowd in Fontana for today's Auto Club 500 is meager compared to NASCAR's southern swing races and even Las Vegas. With a 92,00 seat capacity, there might be 60,000 in attendance. I have been to both the Vegas track and Fontana and the Vegas track is far superior in the "Fan Friendly" area. I love Vegas! ISC needs to redesign Fontana so you don't have to go down to ground level everytime you need to go to the rest room or get something to eat or drink. Vegas has facilities on all levels and.... elevators! What a concept!

USA Olympics

Our USA Olympic Team is outstanding in Vancouver. We all should be proud of their dedication and hard work and the results during the first 9 days!

President Obama Can't let go of Health Care

Our President needs to focus on homeowners and the economy and stop with the health care issues. Right now Mr. President, nobody cares because people continue to lose their homes and jobs. Health care doesn't mean much if you are losing your home or job! Put America back to work and save our mortgages!

You can focus on health care after the mid-terms.... oh yah. You are going to lose congress to the Republican's huh? Now I understand!
