What if this lady were to run for the President of the US in 2012, would we be an better off or not? Here is some information for you to read about here. The picture on the right is Mrs. Palin when she won a beautify contest in Alaska. If she runs and wins she would be the best looking President we have ever had. Governor Sarah Palin first made history on Dec. 4, 2006. Sworn in that day as the 11th governor of Alaska, she is the first woman to hold the office.

I laughed, more at myself than anything else, I told him that I was about done repairing it. I finally got all the fittings connected and glued back together. I did not know that Pat had taken these pictures until I unloaded the camera. But this will tell you why I could not move on Sunday morning. Every muscle in...
