Monday, July 14th YOUR TAKE




I'm back from a trip to Winchester, Virginia. (more on that later). Glancing at the headlines this AM, there's been a lot of news since I left. I'm curious as to what you make as the biggest news story in the past 5 days: Your choices (in no certain order):

1. Tony Snow's passing...former White House Press Secretary
2. US Financial Woes wreak havoc on banking stocks...WaMu down 35% Monday
3. 2008 MLB Allstar break...is there one Mariner in the lineup?
4. Budweiser being sold to a Belgian company? HUH? An iconic American brand gets sold overseas? What's next? McDonalds to an Indian Company? (new name: McMumbai) Your opinion on what will happen to the brand? Will Bud become a "cheap version of Stella"? (another Belgian brand)
5. Madonna and A-Rod...despite the 2008 All Star game being held in New York this week and this being the last year of the old Yankee stadium, THIS story made front page headlines in NY papers today.
6. i phone glitches...for all you techies who "waited in line for coolness" over the weekend.

Your take? Feel free to comment.

Big fan of Bud and Stella getting it on--maybe they'll make a nice little interacial baby. A cheap version of Stella? I think not. I mean, when Steve Buscemi as a white trash engineer can say things like, "go get us a sixer of bud", Stella can only add a little class.

Wamu in troubled waters--JS, whatcha gonna do?

MLB--ugh, SO not a fan of baseball on tv, and this is coming from a gal who played softball her whole life. Its just super boring to me, everyone is on roids, and they need a freakin' salary cap. Let's bring football back...And seriously, 15 innings last night?
