Giving Blood
I'm donating plasma today at American Red Cross. If you don't already give blood on a regular basis, I highly recommend it. It's kind of like getting the oil changed in your car!

Happy Turkey Day
What a great country we live in! Despite the negativity of news media, we have so many things to be thankful for. But we must not be complacent. There are threats to our way of life. I still feel two of our most important freedoms are the right to vote and the right to a trial by a jury.
Happy Thanksgiving. God bless you all.

Badgers & Packers
If you are a football fan, isn't it great to be in Wisconsin! Unless the Badgers fall on their face against Minnesota, they should get invited to a nice bowl game. And the Packers ae surprising everyone!
It looks like the worst of the subprime mortgage crisis is just ahead of us. It looks like we will see the most effect of higher rates for borrowers as their loan rates adjust during the first four to six months of 2008. Five years ago some lenders were offering teaser rates that enabled many to buy homes. Now with the adjustable rates kicking in at much higher rates than the teasers, they are finding it almost impossible to make the higher payments. Lots of "ouches" out there.

Neat Website
The space shuttle is returning to earth today from the International Space Station. It is probably too late for this time, but a great website to tune in to for live coverage of these space ventures is: http://www.nasa.com/.

Big Game
I anxious for tomorrow's Ohio State/UW football game. I think we will finally see what kind of team Wisconsin really is. I know our expectations were high at the beginning of the season. Tomorrow will tell us whether our expectations were too high!
