Current Volvo will probably go to #1 daughter. San Jose. 65 miles from here. Can't hardly make a road trip out of that.  You haven't scared me sufficiently yet.

*edit*  Practically speaking, Late Feb. through May may be a possibility, let's see what shakes out.

Late August thru  September is best. This weekend will be oh my god.

November thru April, Yellowstone's closed, and October and May are unpredictable tho potentially awesome. We usually say October's the best but last year was kind of iffy.

If you're not so much concerned with Yellowstone, the winter months... well they're still shit. December thru February are pretty much gray and stark and just count on indoor stuff. Sure we get out and play but unless you ski I don't see that being a good time to come for a visit. It's often a monotonous drive with everything monochrome.

but if February's when you have the time, we'll still plan a party!

  Thanks.

Hey, new car discussions going on here.  Road trip trial runs a possibility.  When should we absolutely, positively, never try to visit your part of WY?  (Schedule between now and end of year probably already filled.)

mmmm picking cherries.

Ralph Nader on Bill Maher was just now saying Biden was one of the architects of the war on drugs. 

I gotta go look that one up.

Posting about Joe is like picking cherries. There's just so very much to choose from. He lied a bunch big time yesterday.

edit:  same ole, same ole.

You are right in suggesting that the focus should not be so intently upon the VP candidates.

However, the GOP cannot have it both ways.  They are happy to have Palin front-and-center for the "rock star" affect, which is to their strategic advantge, but then complain when the spotlight also brings with it scrutiny.

One might ask: Why is she getting so much attentiion?

  

I guess it's more fun to pick on Palen.
I wonder if ol Biden could answer the same type of questions Couric ask Palen, regarding Obama?

Do we have his financials somewhere?  I know the Presidential candidates made theirs public.  I'm sure there is handy link someone can find that will show us all the info.  I'm particularly interested because he is reported to be one of the least wealthiest of the U.S. Senators but I would like to see the numbers for myself before I start talking about it.  Which I plan on doing because I think it is worth commenting on.  But I would like some facts first.

Just *bumping* Fightin' Joe here. Can't wait for the "debate" to happen!

If Steeler has groupies, then there's hope for poor ol' Joe Biden. Fightin' Joe! Let him debate Palin! Let not the McCain campaign abandon their debate commitments. We deserve a fair one to one comparison.

More silliness here.  And yes Steeler has groupies.  It is because he is totally swoon-worthy.
