I am not a Republican by any stretch of the imagination, but I did vote for Ronald Regan the first time he ran. Besides I really liked the quotes.
Now for those of you who do not know who you would vote for, here is a web site to help you decide: http://www.votebyissue.org/election2008
I was so shocked from the results, I wrote to my friend this message:
Monday January 14th, 2008
Dear Ken,
I was off today, and cleaning out my in-box, decide that I would take this test. I lean towards the Democratic, but consider myself an Independent.
When I did this test, I opted NOT to exclude anyone. I wanted to see where I stood.
Now my least favorite Democrat is Hildray -- I just don't like her.
I was shocked at my own results:
I agreed with Hillary Clinton - 8 issues.
I agreed with John Edwards - 6 Issues.
I agreed with Rudy Giuliani - 6 Issues.
I agreed with Dennis Kucinich - 6 Issues.
I agreed with Ron Paul - 5 Issues.
I agreed with Fred Thompson - 5 issues.
Everyone else got 4 Issues I agreed with, except John McCain, I only agreed with him on 2 Issues.
I disagreed with Hillary on only 2 issues.
I am in total shock; I think I will go back to bed.
Michael
He told me he was shocked with his results as well.
Well, I am even more confused that I was before, because my Step-Mother in
This web site tells me that I would vote for Ron Paul. So what am I? A Democratic or Republican?
I can’t worry with this now, because I need to worry about the Lottery. Did you know that no one won the Jack Pot last night?

I thought all of you might like this little story to end your week or perhaps to begin your weekend. You have to read it fast out loud. It will make you laugh and bet you can't read it too fast without chuckling some. It's an old one but still funny. You'll have to tell me how fast you could read the story out loud. Enjoy the laugh.
Petey The Snake
Petey was a snake, only so-o-o big. Petey lived in a pit with mother. One day Petey was hissing in the pit when his Mother said "Petey, don't his in the pit. Go outside the pit to hiss."
So Petey went outside of the pit to hiss. Petey was hissing all around when he finally went over and hissed in the pit. Petey's Mother heard Petey hissing in the pit and said, "Petey, if you must hiss in a pit, go over to Mrs. Potts' to hiss in her pit.
Petey went over to Mrs. Potts to hiss in her pit but Mrs. Potts was not home, so he hissed in her pit anyway. While Petey was hissing in Mrs. Potts' pit, Mrs. Potts came home and found Petey hissing in her pit. She said, " Petey, if you must hiss in a pit, go to your own pit and hiss."
This made Petey very sad and he cried all the way home. When Petey got home his Mother saw him crying and said, "Petey, what's the matter?" Petey said, "I went over to Mrs. Potts' pit to hiss in her pit. Mrs. Potts wasn't home so I hissed in her pit anyway. Mrs. Potts came home and found me hissing in her pit and said, "Petey, if you must hiss in a pit go to your own pit to hiss. Don't hiss in my pit."
This made Petey's Mother very angry and she said, "Why that mean old lady. I knew Mrs. Potts when she didn't have a pit to hiss in."
