Dislike Barack Obama says he wasn't trying to snub Hillary Clinton at this week's State of the Union Address. Photographs show Obama turning his back to his political rival as she was greeting Ted Kennedy, who was standing next to Obama. The Illinois senator says he was asked a question and turned away to talk with that person. How they would be treating each other if they weren't Christians? Barred In Maine, a 92-year-old woman was surprised recently to hear about her published obituary. Anne E. Hathaway's obituary had appeared in the "Bangor Daily News," and when a friend called her about it; Hathaway said, "I went to the pearly gates and opened the door and they didn't have any strawberry shortcake and they didn't like the way my hair looked." Many people will not enter heaven, but it won't be because of a "bad hair day." Straight Talk Margaret Truman, the daughter of former President Harry Truman, died this week at 83. Truman had several careers including work as a writer and a singer. But when "Washington Post" critic Paul Hume wrote that Truman "cannot sing very well," her father fired off an angry note on White House stationery. Truman wrote to Hume, "I have never met you, but if I do you'll need a new nose and plenty of beefsteak and perhaps a supporter below." And they say McCain is the king of straight talk. Boring In Washington this week, President Bush delivered what will be his final State of the Union Address. I thought it was a boring speech especially when I saw Nancy Pelosi in the back ground reading a book. Rejection A statue of Arthur Fonzarelli from "Happy Days," will be erected in Milwaukee - where the TV sitcom was set - now that local groups have raised the $85,000 needed to do it. Henry Winkler, who played Fonzie during the show's run from 1974 to 1984, calls the "Bronze the Fonz" project "a phenomenal compliment." While the other cast members get nothing, I guess that they will just have to "sit on it." Aged According to a report by "People" magazine, the '90s boy band, New Kids on the Block, reportedly plan to reunite. Some people are calling it: The Rogaine Reunion. In the movies, Sylvester Stallone is Rambo again. Like everyone else, he's older. He now gets an AARP discount for ammo. Worry In Chesterton, Indiana, two fourth-grade boys mimicking a scene from the movie "A Christmas Story" wound up with their tongues stuck to a frozen flagpole. They were serving on flag duty at Jackson Elementary School last Friday morning, with the job of raising and lowering the school's flags. They decided to see if their tongues really would stick to the cold metal. My fear is that these children will be running the country some day. Politics Rudy Giuliani is out of the presidential race, finally, a Republican with an exit strategy. Giuliani said he will endorse John McCain, while Edwards will endorse VO5 products. It is sad that we have to vote for presidential candidates that are grown adults who quibble better than children. Quote this article on your site | Views: 182 | Print | E-mail
