I live 38 miles away - what do you think.

A very small artificial one.

No but my son has, he loved it.

My Grandma Vivian who I loved more than anyone on this earth, she was
always my champion. We would spend it at one of her sister's homes, she
was most happy surrounded by her relatives.

You, of course Maw..... . More games please!

(At the moment it is 2 but don't tell the others, they are very jealous of my
attention ).

6. You have a magic wand and get to change one thing about our society. What do you change?

BOC. It truly becomes a Bank of America and those who need funds like
the homeless guy in NY who the cop gave the pair of shoes to...could go
and get the money for shoes, no payback required. It was my magic wand, remember.

7. How often do you go to carnivals?

I would go whenever they're in town if my kids or someone would go with
me. Love the carnivals but alas, my kids don't 'do' them anymore .

None. Why waste emotion on something that basically doesn't change from
one election to the next?
