Tim Russert

What a sad time....Tim Russert dead at 58. I will seriously miss him. Someone will eventually take his place on Meet the Press but it won't be the same. He allowed the regular Joe the ability to understand the political world. And he was never afraid to ask the tough questions and would pry until he got an answer or until he made the guest squirm a little.

He was one of the great ones! RIP...

This is truly sad. I will also miss him, Stephanie.

I liked him as well. The older I get the less I like politics, but I always enjoyed him!

How sad. I used to watch him every now and then. He will definitely be missed. 58 is way too young to leave.

Tom Brokaw in closing:
"Do me a favor. Say a prayer for Brother Timmy. Tip a cold one. Go Bills!!!"

Perfect.

Hi Ann...All is good in my part of the world. There are only a few areas of Des Moines that are still not back to normal yet. Now the flooding is hitting the eastern part of Iowa along the Mississippi. What a crazy spring!

Thanks for checking on me though! I really appreciate it!!!

Glad you're ok! Lately watching the news is very depressing. I can't imagine that kind of flooding! Stay dry!
