The Tribe, The Debate and the Workout

Congratulations to the Cleveland Indians as they head to the World Series. I am not sure that the city of Cleveland could handle TWO championships in one year?! It will certainly be an interesting if it is Indians vs. Cubs for the title.

Speaking of battling for the title, I will be glad when this last Presidential debate is over. Early voting has started here in Hamilton County, Tennessee and we are planning to go this Saturday. Check here if you are interested in voting early in your state!

Debate: No Surprises and a Rest Day

Last night at the first Presidential debate there were no real surprises at all. Clinton was prepared and provided specifics and Trump spoke vaguely, cut off Clinton a number of times and seemed to become more and more frustrated. I am confident that the United States will survive either of these candidates for four years, but there was one really disturbing fact in the debate. It was obvious that Hillary had a strategy and it seemed to work well. Clinton would poke Trump with a barb-like statement: Not releasing tax returns, the "birther" conspiracy, etc. and you could see Trump COULD NOT HELP HIMSELF.... he took the bait every time and railed and ranted and frankly looked like a bit of a loose cannon. Not good. I am glad not to be a Trump spokesperson today...

Rest day from exercise. Have a Great Day!!
