#1 Fan

I am not a fan of either Elisabeth Hasselbeck or the Phoenix Zoo, but I have to say that I have been impressed with both over the past two days. I recorded The View on Wednesday to see what she would say and do after Obama won! And, much to my surprise, she handled herself with a great amount of poise, not something that I see her display often, so for that, two thumbs up. It was actually enjoyable to watch, since it was a display of how these girls can act like WOMEN! I know that everyone doesn't agree, but I cannot imagine getting on television and screaming at your colleagues, that would be exhausting. How can almost NONE of my friends (the only two friends I have been able to come up with who wanted Obama were Cynthia and Andrea, other than that, I am at a loss) and I agree on who should be President, but we are still able to have a BLAST together, discuss it, and not make a scene! Anyway, I was very proud of Ms. Hasselbeck and her restraint!

The Phoenix Zoo is a pile of dirt if you ask me. How it is appealing to animals, I will never know. I think MAYBE the lions have some grass, other than that, it is DIRT. It has a lot of flies, it smells, and overall, I HATE going to the zoo, but my kids love it, and if you get there early enough, they can run around and see all the animals out and eating. We stayed for about an hour, but the point of the story is how accommodating they were about letting this recently crowned airhead into the zoo. I lost my Membership card, Pat had my license, and they let me in with my COSTCO card. I am sure it was against all policies, and she did say she would do it for me just this once, but my kids and I greatly appreciated that!
