Presidential Prognosis Negative... I've been somewhat 'alarmed' at the way the U.S. Presidential primaries are going. I make no apologies in saying that I'm a Democrat with 'amendments.' That does not mean that I'm a 'left-wing, liberal nut' like a person such as *Ann Coulter might perceive.

*For those who don't know... Ann Coulter is a 'right-wing, conservative nut.

I'm actually quite frightened at the moment. George W. Bush sucks as President. You ever notice this guy always sort of smiles & laughs no matter what questions are put forth to him? Does Bush even have a clue?

In any case George "Lame Duck" Bush is out of office next year. However what the hell is going to happen afterwards? Obama, Hillary & McCain all scare me out of my wits!

Will the terrorists [test the new President] as they have done with Bill Clinton in 1993 & "W" in 2001? I believe so. They were intent on taking down the World Trade Center & they succeeded. What is the next 'target' of intent?

Maybe I'm just being paranoid? According to the Mayan Calander [the world as we know it] ceases to exist after 2012. Other ancient calenders, prophecies, etc... point to the year 2012 also.

It's 2008 so whoever becomes President will more than likely be President in 2012.

That's what scares me! I'm scared of everything. I scared of myself.

Even God scares me...

Jeff Healey... I am very saddened to hear of the great guitarist, Jeff Healey's passing at the young age of 41. He was an inspiritaion who did not allow his blindness & life-long battle with cancer discourage him from realizing his aspirations.

I had only seen him perform once [as the opening act] for the Allman Brothers some years ago. Jeff was a brilliant player who played with his guitar on his lap. It was amazing how he was able to twist those blues licks & bend those 6 strings so effortlessly!

>When I met Pete Townshend a couple of years ago he had told me he became interested in Fender's 'Vibro King' guitar amplifiers after seeing Jeff Healey use them.

I'm sure everyone who ever saw Jeff perform was inspired by his tenacity & bravery in the face of adversity.

God Bless Jeff Healey!
