<<Desperately in need of a work out,>> I was never a really physical creature. Until I met my husband who had a membership to the local gymn. And there was a pool. And I love water. It is the ultimate safety/cradle. And then I read that swimming burned, like, 3 times as many calories as treadmilling or weight-lifting and I'm middle-aged and was getting the tire around the middle so I said I can do this. Play in the water to get skinny. And I did 2 laps and thought I would die. And did three the next day. And then 2 miles, finally, because as much as you swim you want to swim more. It is entirely addictive. If you are away for a while you are insane. It takes a few days back to restore the sanity. There is a place, in the water where everything "real" goes away. And Sanity is restored. Sort of a Zen thing. Go work out, Andy. Please.

Unless it's Slick Willy. Nah, we shouldn't hate him either until we find out the facts. I used that nickname precisely because it's the name he hated the most -- he told Dan Rather so on 60 Minutes donchaknow!!! I don't hate any leader JUST because he/she is a leader. Sadly, it doesn't take long for them to build my hatred towards them through their malfeasance and, in the case of Canada, outright LIES. all time favourite Bushism: "We have to get the left hand (shakes his right hand and looks at it) to talk to the right hand (shakes his left hand and looks at it)." Our politicians suck too, it's just too bad that they aren't such boobs. If they were, it would be a lot more fun to live here. alive and schticking in sunny CA NA DUH A.A. Clinton was the country's punching bag. Everybody beat on him. No surprise that the ones who beat the hardest were the ones who checked the facts least, or not at all. He certainly brought a lot of it on himself, but then who doesn't. He also has a very high energy level and sex drive to match, which over-ran him. Regarding your other post about Vince Foster, I can relate to being at a funeral where my grief is not real high, and then being distracted by other things. Then the camera comes along. Or, it might just have been more self-destructiveness. Presidents are just human beings, even the ones we vote for.
