Amanda Knox has won her appeal on murder charges in Italy and is heading home. The authorities have a man in jail for the murder of her roommate. However, there's is still a small part of me that believes she was involved somehow. But a "feeling" and "evidence" are two different things......Everybody all of a sudden is on the Chris Christie bandwagon, wanting the New Jersey Governor to run for President. Is he really that much better than the other 9 announced candidates? In what way? I do like his "take charge" approach to things. He reportedly will make his decision by the end of the week..... If you missed it, YouTube the Texas Rangers Baseball Playoff game, where a young boy, whose father died at the stadium earlier this year, throws out the first pitch to Ranger outfielder Josh Hamilton. Hamilton had thrown a ball into the stands and the dad leaned over the railing to catch it for his son, and fell and later died. The Rangers have raised several hundred thousand dollars for the boy and his family. Say what you want about professional athletes and yes there are jerks in all groups. But there are also wonderful people who give from the heart and ask nothing in return.
