The Man with the Yellow Hair

My Schwan's man was here today. He looked a little bit different and, while I didn't want to stare, it became pretty obvious that it wasn't just a new haircut that I was noticing, it was a new hair color.

We made our usual small talk and our biweekly exchange, the frozen food for me, the check for him, and as he turned and walked back to his truck I realized that his new hair color matched his truck.

I almost stopped him to comment about that, just in case there was a contest and the first person to mention that his hair matched his truck would get a prize, but I decided against it. Didn't want to embarrass him. Or myself.

Have you ever seen a Schwan's truck? Thank goodness he left off the blue highlights.

I'm An Angry White Woman

My sassy red hat is off to Mr. Gary Hubbell, who penned this awesome commentary about angry white men. I'm guessing Mr. Hubbell knows there are some pretty angry white women out there, too, including this sassy one.

Right on, Gary Hubbell. You go, guy!

My Hillary Poll - Encouraging Results

I have a very unscientific poll going on at my Who is Hillary Clinton? page on Squidoo. The page is meant to be informative, presenting facts about Hillary and the campaign, some resources pro-Hillary, some anti-Hillary. It's meant to help people gather information in order to make an informed decision prior to heading off to the voting booth to cast their ballots, not to try to sway people in either direction.

Judging by the variety of comments in the two feedback sections on the page, its visitors run the gamut from staunch Clinton supporters to those who are quick to remind us of Bill Clinton's impeachment proceedings and Hillary's Rose Law firm fiasco. So, even though it's unscientific and its number of visitors is in the hundreds and not the thousands, I have to think that the poll results come very close to mirroring the opinion of the population as a whole.

Thus, I am encouraged by the fact that the score has stayed in the vicinity of 45% yes, 55% no in response to the question, "If Hillary Clinton receives the nomination, will you vote for her?" We'll see in time how that compares with the real-life results.
