Henrietta Hughes – “I don’t feel homeless and alone anymore”

Category: Economy,ObamaTim @ 7:41 am

Tuesday, President Obama visited the Fort Myers, Florida area and during a talk, he encountered Henrietta Huges

At the town hall meeting President Obama held Tuesday in Fort Myers, Hughes told the president that she and her son were homeless. After the event, as we reported yesterday, Hughes got an incredible offer: Chene Thompson, wife of a state legislator, offered the use of a vacant home she owns.

“It’s amazing what the lord has done through his people.” In case you missed the coverage, here is the video from the town hall. Note Obama saying he would have his people contact her after the town hall.

There are a couple of interesting parts of this video. The Dow Watch box in the corner of the screen shows the Dow falling lower as he speaks. What is more interesting is the emotion displayed by the woman to the left of Obama who seems overcome by his presence and mouths, “I love you Barack” in the background. Scary.

Coffee Anyone?

Category: Humor,Pictures/GraphicsTim @ 7:50 am

Tuesday, February 3rd.

The football season is officially over, the economy is in the toilet and the groundhog has seen his shadow. Yikes. February blows. Well, at least I have a good cup of coffee to keep me going.

Coffee Pot Sludge

mmmmm...a great way to start your day!

I come into the office early; some would consider it to be stupidly early, but I’m usually the one to make the coffee. This morning, I was met with a science experiment gone horribly wrong. I’m not sure if I was witness to the birth of a new life form or an alternative source of fuel, but it had to go. I need coffee. Coffee is the sustainer of life in these trying times. Coffee gets us going. Coffee makes us smile. Coffee helps us write sentences longer than four words. Must have coffee.

Oh well, I suppose I shouldn’t be too depressed. After all, it’s only 6 more months until the start of the NFL preseason…

It’s a good thing February is short.
