Bad News: As if we all didn’t have enough to worry about…a column in my paper by a respected veterinarian is warning that pop-top cat food cans can are made with a substance that can damage a cat’s thyroid. I’m assuming that this also applies to pop-top dog food cans. Maybe even pop-top human food cans.
I know it doesn’t relate to pop-top beer cans; if that were the case I would have died a long time ago.
Good News: Two recent polls taken on the Lamont, Lieberman (Who is that other Republican guy?) senate race puts Lieberman and Lamont in a dead heat. What makes this even better news that at first glance is that almost 30 percent of the people polled are undecided.
My guess is that after 18 years of Lieberman, his sore loser campaign as an independent; and his continual nasty campaign style, those independents will mostly go for Lamont.
Bad News: More troops are being called up for
Good News:
I say let Cruise become as invisible as his new born daughter. Take Katie with them and move to an alien planet filled with bug-eyed, couch-hopping Scientologists. Bring Oprah too, for that matter.
Bad News: It looks like we’re going to have another bungled, brouhaha over the death of Jonbenet Ramsey. Leaks, false information, media mania and lack of solid police work will take this case and once more turn it into a circus filled with clowns which is criminal.
Will Jonbenet ever get out of the cowgirl outfit and off the stage?
My theory on who killed her remains the same: Occam’s razor --When faced with two or more possible explanations for a situation, choose the simpler one.
Good News: Fall is my favorite time of the year and this morning I could smell it in the air.
What’s your season? What’s your reason?

Growing up in Florida we never had much of Fall. So I had no idea, I could only go by pictures and the tele. So I grew up loving Spring. The new bright green leaves against the lovely spring sky. Azealas and Lillies blooming. And I loved the solemnness of Easter. Even as a child.
Oh but now, allergies have struck, and I live up North. So of course I adore the colors, and the smell of fall. The burning leaves has such an earthiness about it, it's hard to describe.
Summer. Things in life just seem to flow more smooth in summer for me.
Good news: My good friend just returned home safely from a year long all-expenses-paid trip in Iraq, courtesy of the US Army and George W Bush.
That was a GREAT post Mary!
Whats my season and reason...hmm. Id have to say its a toss up between Summer and Fall. I love both seasons.
Jackie...I must admit there's nothing better than a lazy Sunday with snow falling, a book and cat on my lap and the TV on to a football game with a fire crackling in the fireplace.
PG - you can smell burning leaves? You lucky dog...they don't let us burn leaves here...I remember that smell from my childhood and it was magnificent.
Nate, I'm so happy your buddy got out of Iraq unharmed and that they let him go rather than make him stay longer. I like summer a lot, but I seem to tire of it which I never do with fall.
Hey Marko thanks a lot. I'm noticing a trend here...not a soul says they love winter...of course, there's only four of you who stopped by today hahahaha.
i like winter if it snows otherwise i hate it.
i do not like cold weather, i like cool nights and i like warm days.
although i always said my perfect weather would be 90 degrees and snowing.
Hey Mary,
I'm also glad that fall is on the way. That is my favorite time of year. The light is different, colors are more vivid, the trees, oh the trees. The moisture in the air makes things smell better, even the smoke from burn piles, I love that too. I think of carving pumpkins and bundling up in a soft sweater at night. The other morning I woke up and I swear I wished it was raining. Never thought I would say that after the wet spell we had a few months back. I love the change of seasons, can't imagine a life without it.
Good post, thanks for reminding me that fall is coming!
I like winter too. Who can resist a beautiful blanket of snow with the dark wood of the trees? Winter going into spring can be a bit dreary, but otherwise it's a nice change. I can't help but love all the seasons since I grew up with summer being 7 months long.
Oh I think leaf burning is illegal here too, it's just we're real renegades here in stinkskill. (not meaning the burning leaves-stinkskill works really hard at being ugly)
