I would love to live in California. And then, there are times when I'm glad I don't live in California. I guess Arnold Schwarzenegger announced during a Wednesday afternoon taping of NBC's "The Tonight Show" with Jay Leno that he's running for governor.
Now, as I write this, there are 389 other people that are running right now, including Gary Coleman, who played Arnold Drummond in the 1980s sitcom "Diff'rent Strokes, Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt , the melon-smashing comedian Gallagher, comedian D.L. Hughley and socialite-turned-columnist Arianna Huffington. Oh, and then there's Bob Dole and Michael Jackson, but not the people that you're thinking of. You can check out the Candidate Status Report here.
It only takes $3,500 and 65 people to sign a petition. I can't wait to see who actually qualifies and gets certified to run.
I'm watching the White Sox game (they have a day game here in town) and it's looks like a great day to be at the park. The place is full, it's warm, and the sun is out. In the meantime, all of a sudden there's thunder outside. Then high winds. Sure enough, here comes the rain again. We had two great dry days and here we go again. This time, the wind is really whipping the rain against the house. No hail this time, though. Does that make it any better? Trees are bending from the winds. This is going to end sometime, right???
Does it make you wonder when you find a spent bottle rocket on your lawn if your property was targeted? Or is it the constant news stories on possible terrorism targets that seems to bring it up in your mind?
