During  last night's "debate" I was reading Ann Lamott's book "All New 
People." From  the comments I've read this morning, that was a good  
choice...>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
 
 
I do not watch or participate in events in which I have a lot of  emotional
involvement.  This does include the US Presidential debates.  I  can 
sometimes
quickly poke into the live discussions, but not for long as I feel my  pulse
throbbing and hyperventilation begin.
 
After the debates I get all the information I need relatively stress free  
by 
watching the news networks summaries.  For me this is usually  NBC.
 
The same is true for my watching UW-Madison and Green Bay Packer
football games.  My last live Badger game was such that I thought I  would
die with the extra systoles.
 
And this Sunday the old archrival Chicago Bears play the Packers in
Green Bay, and given better control of my emotional overtime, I'd love  to
see it.  Chicago has always been a big rival for Wisconsin teams  being
so close by.  In the original version of "On Wisconsin,"  the Badger Song,
had the phrase, "Run the ball clear round Chicago." the only team in  the
lyrics mentioned by name.  Ironically UChicago gave up  intercollegiate
sports in the 1940's.
 
In any case, a belated Hooray Hilary!
