A dilemma: Clinton vs. Sanders

A dilemma: Clinton vs. Sanders

theskylineview.com — Presidential primary season opened Feb. 1, 2016, with the Iowa Caucuses. Both Democrats and Republicans will vote for their respective favorites to be on general election ballots in November. I'm torn. It is a given that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could step into the Presidency on day one; she is super experienced and "wicked smart," to quote President Obama from a recent TV interview, and it would seem fair to have a woman for president. On the other hand, Senator Bernie Sanders would likely be able to step into the presidency, if not on day one, then on day two, because he is also brilliant.

CSM Bulldogs never gave up

CSM Bulldogs never gave up

theskylineview.com — Nov. 21, 2015. Final score 55 to 76. But it wasn't a basketball game - it was the Bulldog Bowl, a NorCal football playoff. College of San Mateo Bulldogs, NorCal's wild card team, played their hearts out and their butts off, but the Chabot Gladiators were.... well, gladiators. The first half ended 34 to 14 with Chabot on top. To begin the fourth quarter, CSM scored seven points, followed by Chabot's battering with 28 points up on the board, to extend the Gladiators' lead 62 to Bulldogs' 21. The CSM Bulldogs never gave up! They. Just. Never. Gave. Up.

joyofwritingdotme.wordpress.com — Hi all - My 4-1-1: I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. I moved to California Sept. 1, 1967 when I was 25. I've been living in San Mateo since 2004. This past November I turned 70. What does that mean? It's a number. Einstein was right: time is totally relative! I'm not sure what 70 is supposed to feel like; whatever, I feel strong, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed (where on earth did that expression come from?!). Hobbies and interests: I don't have any hobbies, per se. Who's got time? I'm running a household, going to school, like to spend time with family and friends.
