On the same day he ducked out of his campaign and tried to postpone the debates, it seems that McCain has ditched Letterman. And Letterman is pissed . . .
There is no obstacle which cannot be overcome with determination, a little ingenuity, and a lot of duct tape.

Nostalgia
Ever find yourself longing to go back to some place in your past? Tonight for some reason, I' longing for those days, not to long ago, when I had next to nothing.
I was living in a one bedroom apartment. The kitchen was small, but it was just enough. Didn't have a lot of things. I just guess I was looking around wondering where all this "stuff" came from.
Can I go back? Can I?

Survived by Her Partner
Everyone has seen the story of the MetroLink train crash on Friday, Sep. 12. We've seen the pictures of the LA Police Officers saluting the body of one of their own as it was taken from the train.
It is sad that in our country, the fact that she was gay has made headlines. Because of her and people like her all across the nation, one day it won't. One day the paper will read, Officer Spree Desha, 35 years old, is survived by her partner. And that will be that.
I think the real story here is that she was a person first. She had a family and they will miss her. That can't be changed. However, for the rest of us out here in the heartland, it is comforting to know that someone in a such a conservative profession as law enforcement was able to live her life, just as anyone else does
