YIKES! Who remembers that infamous Joe Theismann tackle? I won't go into detail, it is quite uncomfortable, but if you're curious look it up at your own risk...you football fans know what I'm talking about...

Wow, I'm often reminded just how young this country still is...the first version of a civil rights bill since Reconstruction was signed in 1957? Wow...

Yeah for Cali--Happy Birthday, California Love!

If you're blue and you don't know where to go to, why don't you go where fashion sits...putting on the ritz! ((Taco))

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor...and she's dancing like she's never danced before. ((Michael S./dancing around and around, rocking leotard, ripped shirt... ))

Who doesn't love a Monkees song? When I saw her face, now I'm a believer, without a trace, no doubt in my mind...I'm in love....ohhh, I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried...ahhhh. ((Smash Mouth/I'm a Believer))



When I saw his face (Obama), I'm a believer, in healthcare reform, no doubt in my mind...I'm all for..oohhh ahhh...fixing a broken system that needs to change 'cause it's time...lol
