Communication Challenged
A few days had past for our 9-10-08 deadline to RSVP our wedding and we only had 131 people out of 200. After a few frantic calls to people who swear they are coming, our guest list went from 130 to 171. Granted its a chinese banquet but paying for 7 empty tables does not make good economic sense. It boggles my mind how people would disregard the due date. I wonder what they do when April 15 comes around.
I am happy that a woman has been nominated for a VP spot. But Palin, the Republican VP nominee, is no HIllary Clinton and I do not agree with her views. Also, it is not the first time a woman has been nominated for the VP spot; Geraldine Ferrara ran with Walter Mondale during the 1984 election but lost to Reagan and Bush. Francis’ mom was excited about Palin’s nomination. I asked her how come she liked Palin, her only response was “she speaks well”. Well she sure did not speak well in her first interview with Charles Gibson on ABC news. Now I really dont care how the candidate looks or speaks. My concern is what their view points are and what they can do to help the US pull out of the sinkhole its in.
