blog entry

Real dull title for an entry, but here it is. I have been grouchy for a couple of days, probably due to the Cold, and spent a lot of time yesterday under the warm covers, with Vicks smeared on. Am better today, but the winter blues and a pity party have taken over. A guy in town yesterday died outside his house when he froze in his hoveround while trying to clean his sidewalk. Four kids were killed in a house fire in northern Iowa the other night. Ricardo Montelban and Andrew Wyeth have both passed away, beginning the list of who famous have died in 09. And the Big news is the Miracle on(or in) the Hudson; the airliner that made a landing in the Hudson River in the middle of Big Apple, but everyone(150 people) got out alive, after 2 bunches of geese got sucked into the jets and destroyed the engines. The hero of the whole thing was Sully the pilot, who has an amazing bio. And W gave his farewell adress to the nation last night, too. It was not very good and no one gave it a big news coverage because the plane crash was the news of the day. I am a W fan--that is my freedom to feel that way, so do not start sending me messages. I do hope that O does good and does not turn out to be just a hustler who talks better than he can deliver, once he gets into the Oval and has to actually be a managing President. We will see. I am reading a history book an George Marshall, and one onAlexander Hamilton, discovering how the first years of the US and the World War 2 era were managed. If the weather stays lousy I can stay inside this weekend and read and view some movies. More to report on in an upcoming blog. This will be all for right now. Stay Warm. Di di mau!
