daydreams

When I began to cross the Gulf stream, I remembered my dreams after
leaving engineering college, and learning about the awesome power
seemably available. The stream never stops, and maintains it's power.
Why couldn't we harness some of this power. I envisioned large turbines on the bottom continuosly churning out power 24-7 to electric generators as we do from wind mills. I believe to some extent,
France does something like this by harnessing neverending power from tidal action. If this is possible, Why not?
We need a Steven Jobs type to get it going, I guess. Not an 88 year old
WW II vet.
Oh well, maybe I'll be able to " look down " on it soon.

politics

I am a republican, and have voted republican since Thomas Dewey. Still, although I wantt to see him replaced, I think Obama is much better than
the trash about him. Birth certificate and so on, is just politics!
However, my favorite for the next administrration is Romney. I would like to see Gingrich as VP, but that probably won't happen.

MARGE

Things don't change. It's hard to watch, would be impossible without
Deb and Hospice. Long days and nights, but not unexpected.
So I watch the news and use my computer and or my I-pad.
That's why i haven't posted.
I'll try to do better, politics!!!
I'm a Romney fan. Yesterday was "super Tuesday" , and went as expected.

MARGE

Marge is spending 22 hrs. aday in bed.

Yesterday, Dec. 18, Deb uncovered the start of a bed sore. I guess the
continuation of the slow down hill slide.
I'll try to keep up better here.

slow. slow going

Marge and I are both facing different paths to the same ending. Marge is
sleeping up to 22 hrs a night, but can't carry on much of a conversation. My loss is mostly physical. Walking across a room is almost beyond me.
I do want to see the end results of the current political games.
As you know if you have followed my blog, I am an ardent republican, while my wonderful daughter is an equally ardent democrat.
My choice would be Romney pres, and Gingrich vp, but I can't see that happening. I'll try to clarify my thoughts soon.
