Thanks for the vote of confidence. AND my husband is a lawyer so I could use his court robes.  AND I have an American passport already since I'm a dual citizen.  I'd also like to volunteer to supervise the head gardener at the Supreme Court grounds.  Or hire Del to be in charge of that.

Of course if we were all in these positions then I'd suggest we quit work early every day and have nice dinners together.

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.

When Palin said, "What's the difference between a soccer mom and a pitbull?"
I was thinking, "One pees standing up."
Wrong joke, heheheh.
Her response was, "Lipstick."
