here?"

Palin just had her Dan Quayle "potatoe moment."

10. She knew the 17th, but blanked on the two others.

The 14th is kind of a big one.

Degree in Law from Yale and a Masters in Divinity from Yale too.

23. Pretty good!

I had a very strong CC lead, and went back to Algoma yesterday to see the kitty. Alas, it was not him.
I was so disappointed, because all the details of Julie's vision were there (south of Algoma, etc..), and he had been hanging around their home for the last year. :(

So, CC is still at large, but I'm hopeful that he's at least found a loving home.
