BLAZIN HOT
We started going to the Utah Blaze games this year...they are the Arena Football team here in Utah and I love them. They are so fun...quick moving and exciting the whole time. I have two of my girls from drill team who dance for them so it makes in between quarters and the half very exciting for me. The boys love it! We are definitely getting season tickets next year.

OBAMA IN DA HOUSE!!!
Finally, we have a Democratic candidate and because of all the stupid questions I get about Obama I thought I would blog some of the most common ones. First, here is my disclaimer for the upcoming "Decision 08"...Everyone, you need to start investigating what you hear! You can't go on what you see in the Enquirer, although there are stories I would love to think are true in there like loosing 20 lbs over night...but that isn't the case. Watch meet the press, NPR even CNN and most of all USE YOUR BRAIN!
I would like to persuade you all to vote for Obama but what I really would love is to challenge everyone to go to the candidates official websites and read over their platforms. Pick the best candidate for what you believe in!
I am taking a political science class right now and 50 years ago the words "Democrat" and "Republican" weren't associated with Liberal and Conservative like they are today. They both are very general terms. So don't associate your decision based stricly on party! The opposing candidates can have the same values as you on certain issues even though they aren't labeled what you want them to be labeled.
Ok there is my sphill! On to the dumb myths!
1- Obama is Muslim! (False)
I have read two of his books and did research. This is not the case. Thought you would find this interesting. When is being diversified a bad thing?
Barack's father was born in Kenya and was raised as a muslim. When Barack's father grew up he became an atheist or agnostic. Obama attended Catholic & Muslim (in Indonesia) schooling for 4 to 5 years before being sent to live in America with his grandmother. He was sent to these schools not for religion but because his mother wanted him to attend the best schools around for educational purposes. Barack Obama is a Christian and has never had anything to do with Muslim Religions. Just another desperate attempt to keep this inspirational leader out of the White House
The below is from his book "Dreams from My Father".
"In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school, two years at a Catholic school. In the Muslim school, the teacher wrote to tell my mother that I made faces during Koranic studies. My mother wasn't overly concerned. 'Be respectful,' she'd said. In the Catholic school, when it came time to pray, I would pretend to close my eyes, then peek around the room.
Nothing happened. No angels descended. Just a parched old nun and thirty brown children, muttering words. Sometimes the nun would catch me, and her stern look would force my lids back shut. But that didn't change how I felt inside. I felt that way now, listening to Will; my silence was like closing my eyes."
More info....
"Calling Obama a Separatist is like calling Hitler a Humanitarian. Yet this is another aspect that has been brought at me as I spread the Obama word one computer screen at a time. Yes Barack Obama belongs to the Trinity United Church of Christ on the South Side of Chicago. This is a predominantly (but not exclusively) black church who is very proud of their race and heritage. They are not racist, they are not a separatist group, these are all lies and misconceptions. The south side of Chicago is heavily black and extremely poor. This church is about bringing people together to rise up out of their situations. They are proud to be black and I don't find that to be racist at all. They don't exclude any race from their church which is what people will lead you to believe."
2- Obama doesn't put his hand on his heart during the POA! (False)
"An anonymous e-mail has been sent out to countless people stating exactly that. Ridiculous as it may be, some people actually believe it. This is exactly what happened blow by blow and shows you the infamous photo of "Barack Dissing The Flag". I am amazed this has gotten as much attention on the net as it has, it just shows how desperate someone is getting (either Hillary or the Republicans). The event ocurred at Senator Tom Harkin's steak fry in Iowa and the attackers take everything out of context. Obama, Richardson, & Hillary are all facing away from the flag as the national anthem is being played. If this were a miltary funeral then all 3 were in violation of code. This being a steak fry means that no one has broken flag code. Its a good photo for the myth but in reality Obama is a stout patriot and always puts his hand over his heart when he says the pledge of allegiance. Nice try to the anonymous attacker who instigated the myth. The fact that he/she remains anonymous should in itself prove its not true."

SEX IN THE CITY!!!
The movie rocked! I finally saw it the other night and it was amazing...I cried, laughed, cried some more...wished I lived in NYC etc. Someone sent me this fun little quiz to see which character you relate to...I am sure this is such a surprise to most of you, mine was Samantha. Take it and let me know who you relate to...
http://quiz.ivillage.com/astrology/tests/sexandthecity.htm
You scored 40% Samantha
You identify with Samantha's bold and liberated Fire Sign qualities, characteristics associated with the Signs of Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. You're strong, audacious and larger than life -- and you take what you want! Sometimes you can even be thoughtless and selfish, as you get so caught up in craving immediate gratification and excitement that you overlook someone's feelings. Your personal style likely reflects your desires: sleek, low-cut, revealing just a bit more than might be considered acceptable. Watch that you're not coming on too strong, though. You could scare potential suitors off with all your drama. If you seek so much attention, the more basic qualities of the Fire Signs could be burned right out of the picture. Show less skin or cleavage and more of your creativity, your vibrant leadership skills and courageous generosity!
You scored 30% Carrie
Your answers peg you as a Carrie-type, much influenced by the Air Sign qualities associated with Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. Like confident Carrie, a sex columnist, you're curious and perceptive, always seeking answers and never satisfied with the superficial. An Air Sign influence can lead to indecision and an avoidance of tough issues, like with Carrie and her on-again, off-again attachment to Mr. Big. Forward-thinking, incredibly intelligent and witty, you just exude quirky charm. You'd be utterly bored by someone who's just a pretty face or hot body -- though you don't mind looking and flirting! You're more turned on by an equally smart and funny mate, someone who challenges your mind and makes you laugh. You love to talk, so you need a good listener who's open to playful and eccentric ideas about love and lovemaking.
You scored 30% Charlotte
A romantic at heart, you chose the answers that demure Charlotte may have chosen. Strongly influenced by the intuitive, profound and sometimes naïve Water Signs -- Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces -- you're like a mother, a mystery and a poet all in one. Though on the surface you may seem innocent and all about seeking the good in people, beneath the surface, you hide secret yearnings for intimacy, for attachment and ideal love. You're seeking a knight in shining armor, a soul mate, someone who will complete you and tether you to the earth when you get carried away with your fantasies. You're super-sensitive, soaking up the moods of others; you emote freely, crying at commercials and sappy movies. You also provide a shoulder to cry on and open arms for hugs. Be careful that you're not so wide-eyed and trusting that you get taken in by some cunning wolf in sheep's clothing.
