Sad about Cory Lidle

Sean told me about former Phillies pitcher Cory Lidle's tragic death in his plane along with his flight instructor. The scene of the crash was a haunting sight, especially since it was exactly 5 yr and one month from 9-11. You never want to see any burning building from a plane accident 40 stories up. Many people, mostly firefighters were injured. The local ABC sports reporter flew with Cory down in Florida this past February before he was traded to the Yankees. She said he did a great job and loved flying. Indeed a tragedy. He left behind his wife and 6 yr old son.

Is anyone else sick and tired of all the freakin' campaign ads? The ones from Rick Santorum here in PA are really annoying. I guess he's scared because Bob Casey is the son of a former PA governor Robert Casey.
My mom has a connection with Ed Rendell, the present governor running for re-election. She use to 'date' Ed's wife's uncle! Mom's been to the Rendell house too. She's met him a few times and said he was just how you see him on the news, very down-to-earth. Said he could get her tickets to anything-darn, she never asked him for any.
