I'm obviously in the minority, here.
Apparently, I can be counted among those groups whose memberships are painfully small:
Those who feel O.J. didn't do it.

I might have mentioned it a time or two already, but my husband and I lend proof to the saying "Opposites Attract." One of the things people find confusing about us is that I'm a democrat and he's a republican. It's not a huge difference except for the fact that he happens to be a...

I guess New York congressmen are the flavor of the year. I honestly didn't want to weigh in on any of this nonsense.
