Last week a friend informed me that Charles Martin, part of my earlier Brett Favre post, passed away in 2005 of complications from kidney disease. Martin was only 46.

Speaking of Favre, I continue to be amazed by how this situation is playing out. Favre actually leaked out information that said Viking players were texting him to encourage him to play. I can't believe they are very happy to be put in the position of looking like they are lobbying for someone to replace QB's already on the active roster.

I can't believe that in a country as great as ours, with all the great minds that we possess. we find it impossible to create a health care system that provides for all of our citizens. While I voted for Obama and support his ideals, I understand that his proposals are far from perfect. What I do not understand is the blatant refusal of the differing groups to work together to come up with a plan that they can agree on! I think that sometimes you just have to do what's right. Even if it stings the pocketbook a little. As my dad used to say, "Lock them in a room and don't let them out until they figure something out!"

I may lose my "man card" for this one, but my favorite TV show this summer is, So You Think You Can Dance. The athleticism and artistry of the competitors on this show just amazes me. Last Week I saw a performance by Melissa and Ade that I while never forget. It was a piece set to the song, This Woman's Work by Maxwell that portrayed a woman's fight against breast cancer and the support of a significant other. It was absolutely breathtaking and an example of the best that television can be! I wasn't able to find a link to the performance. If anyone can find one please let me know and I will share it here.

Here is a link to a place where I spend a great deal of my online time. I think it is a very cool useful site. http://fromthewheelsup.yelp.com/
