How can this race even be close?

The newspaper from Bush’s hometown, Crawford, TX, is endorsing John Kerry. I suppose with a name like “Iconoclast” you’re probably not the most conservative publication, but come on folks! One other note: the most important website of the campaign is FactCheck.org. Get the truth behind the dirt!
I was walking through the ice cream section of my grocer’s freezer, and I found that Dreyers now sells America’s Vanilla. I think this actually came out for Independence Day, but this is clearly tantamount to Freedom Fries. Wasn’t there Russian dressing during the cold war? Did we burn Persian rugs during the Gulf War? Am I really unpatriotic if I eat French vanilla ice cream?
Summerland is supposed to be a kids book, but if you can tolerate following the fantastical adventures of three 12 year olds, then you’re probably in the target audience. This is a struggle between good and evil where many battles are determined on the baseball diamond, and the ultimate weapon is, of course, a bat. Clearly, Summerland was right up my alley.

I’m shocked that I didn’t come up with this movie. I mean, someone’s life hangs in the balance based on how many bars somebody has. It’s a natural.
From Minnesota, to South Bend, to Jersey, and out to California, Grandpa Joe’s ‘96 Olds has been my ride. It’s moved me with upto 6 people, 11 baseball gloves, 5 bats, a plethora of softballs, bike rack, folding chairs, and grill, all in style. Sure, things went wrong from time to time, but all in all, I could count on the Sled. It’ll be tough not driving it anymore. Cars come and go, but once a Sledrider, always a Sledrider.
