John McCain is coming to my work!

And I'm excited. I don't know yet if I'm going to vote for him in November but I am excited to get an opportunity to maybe meet him. It remains to be seen if my workload will allow me to actually get down to where he'll be located (only a few hundred feet from my desk, actually), but here is hoping.

Anyway, I  would like to come prepared with some questions just in case. I  have an idea of what I'd like to ask him about - why the heel-face turn on illegal immigration and border enforcement, how he intends to repair Arizona's economy, how he intends to protect the Constitutional rights of Arizonans from the Obama Administration/overreaching federal government in general, what he intends to do about "Obama-Care,"  what I should trust him as someone who has been entrenched in Washington for decades, etc. I  was curious if anyone here had any questions they'd like asked of him. What would you ask if you had the chance? Feel free to share!

Gulf Coast Relief from the New Orleans Saints

I love it when there's good news in the middle of tragedy.  To help with the relief efforts for the Gulf Coast oil spill, the New Orleans Saints will raffle off a Super Bowl XLIV ring.  They hope to raise $1 million.  And this is great because it's not like a big auction where only a few people would even be able to bid - the tickets only cost $2 (Here's the direct link to the raffle website).

Even though they beat my Colts in the Super Bowl, I have to applaud the Saints for this effort.  It's good to see somebody doing something to help (and being allowed to do so).
