I was born when I was yet quite young, and was second-born in a litter of two. My twin sister and I are not now, nor have we ever been, identical as evidenced by our differing balding patterns: she has very little facial hair. If you look us straight in the face, you'll be able to tell the difference. We were, however, womb-mates (and not cell-mates) which nevertheless allowed us to escape strict individuality for quite some time. In any case, now that we're both in our dotage, I am a stage actor, and she is not. I have written a couple of screenplays: Telepathy Tech and BallTown (an animated feature with sports balls, etc. as characters).

These are a few aids to help with identification.

Who will Democrats run in the 2008 election? Perhaps, more to the point: WHO SHOULD THEY RUN? Whoever it is, you can be sure, the contrast with the current idiot we have in there will be GLARING. Hopefully, the electorate will have had enough of what plagues them now.

Noted for fielding an "attractive" set of candidates for President and Vice President, the Repubs are likely to go for Jeb Bush and Rudy Giuliani. Jeb has several liabilities that appear to outweigh his strengths. Nevertheless, two years is a long time in politics and the Repubs aren't able to see the trees for the BUSHES. You saw it first right here: Jeb Bush will be the Republican's candidate... UNLESS ...
SHARE Tuesday, November 14, 2006 Moderation OBVIOUSLY What Is Needed
Since we are all OVERLY gullible (even from the early years of our "Curious George" and "Elmo" lives), and susceptible to THIS month's fashion or fad (what is it these days: Borat?), our elected officials will continue to be in office resulting (in significant response) to/from NEGATIVE ADS and well-marketed politicians (those who have a Carl Rove to guide their campaigns) irrespective of their qualifications.
