Thanks always for listening!

Some of you know the story, and some of you don't. Now you'll all hear it from me. My life took a biiiiiiiiig and unexpected turn. Everything has worked out for the good, and I've more than survived--I've thrived!

So, here's the story, and it does involve some lovely ladies, some fellas, no kids, and no Alice. Nope, not even Tiger...lol.

Thanks always for listening. I'm gonna get back on a regular schedule now.

Music:

Intro: "Deep Cycle Discharge" by Mevio Music Alley artists Simon James and Derek K. Miller

"Feel" by Mevio Music Alley Artist Eric Erdman

"Today" by independent artist Heidi Bethune

"Turnaround" by Mevio Music Alley artist Vittoria Conn

We're back again, and are we experiencing deja vu?

No, due to the judges' decision not to eliminate anybody, we are once again experiencing the Top 20.

The Fey Driver and I break it down and tell you who and what we liked, and we predict the Bottom Three couples.

Who did we like, and who didn't we like, and could we agree on anything?

The recent shooting of Rep. Giffords is our most recent wake up call to stop the insane way we relate to each other in the political and personal arenas.

Will we answer the call, or just hit "snooze" and go back to sleep again?

As always, I welcome comments.

Also, don't forget that anybody who listens is invited to do an episode of "David's Salon" with me. Just have a topic--any topic--and get in touch with me to set up a recording time.

Is it deja vu?

No, it's actually Top 6 week again, due to a technicality with the judges' not being willing to send anybody home last week.

Michael and I are back to discuss this and more.

How did we feel about the way the week went?

Find out here!

Michael and I got together to discuss the not-so-surprising results of the Top 7 week of So You Think You Can Dance.

In fact, we loved recording so much that we actually did it twice!

Ok, not quite. We had some technical difficulties, and we had to re-record the episode.

The second time around was better than the first, particularly because Michael Sage was under the influence of a couple cups of coffee. Oh, Dear Gussie!

Who did we like, and who did we think was in trouble?

Find out this and more by listening in!

Let me first say that I was never a fan of Saddam Hussein. I thought what he did to his own people was unconscionable and he deserved to be punished for gassing the Kurds.

Let me also say that the timing of his hanging--during the morning call to prayer for Iraq's Muslims--has to have some significance that may turn out to be a serious cultural misstep on our part.

With that, the news of his hanging does not bring me any satisfaction whatsoever. Captial punishment has never been a successful deterrent against further crime, and given the volatile nature of the insurgency in Iraq, it is a safe bet that the violence may well escalate. (One of the few times I have agreed with President Bush, incidentally).

Let me also say that I have never been more ashamed of President Bush than I am at this point--and keep in mind he's done a lot of shameful things over the last six years. He displayed a complete lack of conscience by actually sleeping while the execution was going on. SLEEPING?????!

When asked why Bush slept through what he described as a "milestone," White House spokesman Scott Stanzel said Bush "knew it was going to happen." He was not awakened to be told it was happening or would have happened. How callous can one get? Enemy or not, a HUMAN BEING was put to death today. Doesn't that count for something?

I can honestly say that I am not holding my head up and waving the American flag today.

As we remember the life and accomplishments of President Gerald R. Ford, stories which were previously embargoed are now coming forward. This excerpt of an interview which President Ford granted in 1984 gives a "behind the scenes" look at a famous phrase used in his inaguration speech.
