Usually I don't pass on this type of information - but I've just really had it with all the lies and fabrications from the Democrats and the Obama campaign regarding this economic meltdown. When my husband became a realtor several years ago, I was shocked by all the exotic options the mortgage companies were offering. When I was a young enlisted person, I really needed my VA loan so I could get a house without a big down payment. That was one of my most important benefits at the time. It became irrelevant as one could get a mortgage with no income. Look at the video below and see what the genesis of this debacle is - it has the Democrats hands all over it. Destroying wealth and impoverishing "Main Street." Great job, Democrats!

Such a Sad Day
I am so blessed to be in this beautiful place. As I was walking around Waikiki, I saw the front page of the Honolulu Star Bulletin reported the crash of a Coast Guard HH-65 helicopter late Thursday evening during routine small boat ops. One of the four dead is one of my OCS classmates, Andy Wischmeier. I hadn't seen him in many years, but you go through a lot together in OCS. It breaks my heart.

Hawai'i Again
I just checked into my hotel - Hilton Hawaiian Village. I was stationed here for three years - 1994-1997 and enjoyed my time here very much. It's hard to believe that it has been over 10 years since I left. Tommy was in elementary school and Michaela was not yet four. Tom is a senior this year. How quickly time flies. It felt a bit melancholy flying in here. I have some very wonderful memories of my children here before I got divorced. We had so much fun going to the Hale Koa pools and beaches in Waikiki. Michaela doesn't remember much about Hawaii. I'd like to bring them here for a holiday. I think I'll try to make that happen. I'll have a lot of pictures to download - I plan to go exploring tomorrow. Till then ...

I Was In Paris
Driving down the Champs-Ellysses in a cab speaking Russian with my cab driver because he didn't speak English and my French is admittedly tortured ... and I missed seeing the Celtics win their 17th NBA Championship. Dave recorded the game so I will watch it all when I come home this weekend. I was so happy when the Celtics drafted Lenny Bias - I graduated from the University of Maryland in 1987 and was really proud that they picked him. I know this may sound crazy, but I hope he can rest in peace. His death really hurt the Celtics all this time (of course it hurt him and his family more) and I hope that they can put him and Reggie Lewis behind them finally. Let's Go Celts!!
