I think this was the most exciting final I can recall watching. Two terrific teams, and the team which I favored won. Very satisfying. Second best (yes, I know this will date me), was from my youth when North Carolina (with "Little Lennie Rosenbluth" -- NCAA Player of the Year) edged out...

Dave, I recognize we don't agree on much politically. However, I think you have somewhat of a point regarding John Kasich. Tell you what -- you figure out a way to get rid of that ridiculous, crazy-a$$ totally partisan republican louse Mitch McConnell, who has no concept of what it is like...

And by all means, let's be sure to "punish" the women... Sheeeze!

Congrats!. Think of it as just like Christmas, opening presents never really sure what may be inside each box. Enjoy the experience!

You are SO right-on. Here's hoping we can get back to these types of elections.

"...Substantial turnover in congress..."??? Now there's an idea I think most of us can support!

BTW, FWIW, I have thought from the get-go that John Kasich would indeed be the only republican candidate that could win the presidency, as well as the one the democrats would most fear running against. I still think this is true. He is certainly the only republican candidate for which I would...

Nope, I think you mostly missed on this one. I agree there is some distress about Obama, however the larger issue for most folks, it seems, is with the ridiculous do-nothing congress --> that would be the republican congress, Mitch McConnell in particular. They have not done one damn thing...

Reminds me of back in the day when I worked at SAC HQS. We had a saying that the reward for a job well done was no punishment. Well said. I absolutely agree, a shining example for all.

Overall, I am appalled at those who seek to demonize and blame President Obama for ALL of the world's problems, while making sure to never acknowledge his contributions to making things better. Unfortunately, I suppose that it is appropriate to say that GWB was not quite as awful and inept as...

Still here, lurking from time to time. Very thoughtful of you ask -- always nice to be remembered... Actually, you pose some very good questions. Perhaps only the future will provide appropriate insight and answers to these questions.

Thank you all for taking the time to give me some terrific recommendations. The sorting / listening phase has commenced!

Wow! Terrific recommendations -- Thanks So Much! These will be for my son and his intended...so there is a version of WAF to consider. Currently small apartment in Palo Alto (going to law school). He may also need a quality, reasonably-priced amplifier to go with these speakers, and the...

A few months ago a small, inexpensive speaker was mentioned that way outperformed it's size and price. Now that I really need this info, I can't seem to find the thread. I think they were priced under $500.00 -- maybe half that price. Can anyone help with this? Thanks in advance.

I certainly agree -- Virginia has become the better place over the past several years. No new roads or improvements as the "trust fund" has been continuously hijacked by both parties. However, I blame the democrats more.

Just heard on Letterman: "Now the Washington Redskins are demanding the Democrats change their name."

I should probably quickly add that I really would not have had a problem with John McCain as President. But the "powers that be" in the extreme Right Wing of the Republican party nixed his plan to run with Senator Joe Lieberman as his Vice, so McCain (in resignation and a heavy heart)...

Thanks for asking. Governor O'Malley is WAY overrated by folks outside of Maryland who don't know his policies. Really a BIG take-hike guy. His Lt Governor (Brown) just didn't do anything to distinguish himself as an office-holder or a candidate -- there just was no compelling reason for...

Find myself pretty much agreeing with Gordon and Kevin -- wait and see, and over-reach. Of course, some are gleeful -- even giddy -- with the election results. Me? Well, I voted for a Republican for governor (who won in a heavily Democrat state). Now, some say that Mitch McConnell is a...

I have a relative (an in-law) who I describe as "one who has the ability to be wrong confidently.":D
