Slone Opens a Book

Actually I do enjoy reading, that may have caught some of you by surprise but it's true! I don't just look at the pictures! Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
One of my hero's, along with my mom, dad Yvette and the Lone Ranger, has always been the 40th president, Ronald Reagan. For fathers day, Yvette and the kids bought me "The Reagan Diaries". I had heard a quote from the book a few weeks ago and thought it was interesting. When I started reading the book, I couldn't put it down. It's all his own words on the challenges that he faced and his personal thoughts on them. There are also many notes about his family and of course Nancy. What a love he had for this woman! His thoughts on the assassination attempt, his relationship with God, and how much me hated Mondays! Ever wonder how he felt about Jimmy Carter? Let's just say...well read the book!

Wellllll, wellll........( yeah I used to love doing my laaame Reagan impersonation!) I always liked Ronnie....sad to see how the Whitehouse is being run today compared to his administration.

Ps- Did you hear Kyle Petty drop the F-Bomb today during the race! Yeehaw! I laughed like a madman hearing him let that loose 4 laps after his prerace prayer! Well, we all arent perfect!
