Bio
Hi, I reside in the forgotten borough, the isle of Staten Island. I enjoy writing (DUH!), reading, computers, being a card-carrying liberal, a quality which I passed onto my two grown children and being a professional ball-buster. I enjoy politics and have volunteered on a few political campaigns. I dig blogging and ruffling the feathers of the bureaucacy. I hope none of my posting offend fellow bloggers. After all, boys and girls...we're here to have fun as well as express our opinions. I've been a New Yorker since 1987 but I'm a Midwestern girl at heart.

Ten years ago this week....

This week marks the 10th Anniversary of the passing of John F. Kennedy, Jr.  We had our hopes and dreams of him going into political office. The last hope of a Kennedy being President, forever John-John to us.  The Kennedys were the closest thing to royalty we could get, a dynasty called Camelot.  The picture ever burned in our minds of him saluting the casket of his father at three years old.  His mother, Jacqueline tried to keep her children's lives as private as she could.  He will always be an icon, forever young and full of hope.  Who knows what he could have accomplished if he lived.
