Hi Tim. You and Abby seem to enjoy such a love for politics. Are you guys active club members in your home town too? I find it hard to embrace these civic leaders the way you guys do, since I'm soured to most of them due to dishonesty and their ulterior motives regardless of what team they play for. But then there are many who don't understand why I would like professional sports when many of those athletes are just as shallow if not more so. Perhaps that is why I would not argue with a Redsox fan as much I am a Yankee fan. I don't find the cause to be that important. And I don't think I will be able to change their mind and jump on our bandwagon. A fan is a fan. I respect them for what they are. (Even though I consider their team inferior...) <g> Anyhow, I wonder if you and Abby were stranded on a desert island together, and could not vote, would you both find a lot of similarities despite your different political points of view. Or would the urge to talk politics constantly be the focus and cause you two to argue all the time? I wonder how many similarities you two have yet to discover with each other. -Clapper
