Trolley Crash Takes the Life of Female Green Line Trolley Operator in Newton
Two Green Line Trolleys were involved in a fatal accident that took the life of the operator of the second trolley. Witnesses said that the second trolley crashed behind the first trolley as it was beginning to move towards Woodland Station in Newton, Massachusetts. Federal investigators are looking into the matter to find out what caused the crash.
Operator Terrese Edmonds had been driving trolleys since last October. She was hired only 10 months ago. She was 24 years old. It took several hours for rescue crews to remove her body from the wreckage. Several passengers on the trolleys were sent to Newton-Wellesley Hospital for their cuts and bruises before being released. Fortunately, none of their injuries were life-threatening.
How did this happen? It sounds scary because many use the D line everyday.

Bill Plays "I Accuse!"
Former President Bill Clinton Alleges that There's a Cover Up
Bill Clinton, the former President of the United States and Husband of Senator Hillary Clinton, believes that there are some who are pressuring and bullying superdelegates to prematurely make up their minds. He also believes that the Democrats will lose in November if Hillary is not the nominee.
He also cites that they are covering up the fact that she has the chance to win important states in the general election. He mentions that the media is showing a lot of disrespect towards her since the Iowa Caucuses. Also, he says that the media is trying to get Hillary to say uncle and drop out of the race.
Bill said this recently while campaigning in South Dakota on Sunday.

Hillary Errs Again with RFK Remark
Media in an Uproar over Hillary's RFK Assassination Remark
New York Senator Hillary Clinton had to apologize to her opponent, Barack Obama, for mentioning the RFK assassination. Since she said so close to the 40th anniversary, the media jumped on it. Right now, Hillary is struggling to stay in the Presidential race until a Democratic nominee is selected. Obviously, the strain is showing.
It's been a rough week because Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor. Very upsetting for everyone all around the world. Here in Boston, they have been talking about the Kennedy family and the political legacy. Hillary has been thinking about the tragedies that have afflicted that family for many years. Too much because it's making her blunder even more. It's not making her look good in the media's eyes, and they are doing their best to make her look bad.
Hang in there until the end, Hillary! I'm not offended by this latest gaffe. Apparently, Barack Obama isn't offended either.

Live from New York, It's John McCain
The Republican Presidential Candidate Shows Up on "Saturday Night Live" with Old Age Jokes
No big surprise here! Like Democratic Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, Republican Senator John McCain made a guest appearance on "Saturday Night Live" last night during their season finale. McCain, who is also running for president, made jokes about his age. The senator is 71 years old.
McCain once hosted the NBC show back in 2002.

Senator Ted Kennedy Hospitalized
Senior Massachusetts Senator in Mass General Hospital after Having a Seizure
Yesterday morning at his Hyannis Port home, Senator Ted Kennedy was experiencing something that looked like a stroke and was immediately taken to Cape Cod Hospital. Soon, he was airlifted to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. His doctor has determined that it was a seizure. Kennedy is listed under serious condition at the hospital, but it is not life-threatening.
Last October, Kennedy underwent surgery to clear blockage for an artery in order to prevent strokes and seizures.
Yesterday afternoon, the senator was talking and making jokes with his family members and visitors at his hospital room. He even watched the Red Sox game. He will be staying there for the next few days to determine what caused the seizure. The senator is 76 years old. The last time he was in a hospital in serious condition was more than 40 years ago when he was in a plane crash that killed two people.
Meanwhile on Cape Cod, the Best Buddies charity event went on as scheduled without the senator who was going to host a clambake after the event.
All three presidential candidates issued statements of sympathy to Kennedy and his family.
Get well soon, Senator Ted.

Keep Going Hillary!
Why I Want Hillary Clinton to Keep on Campaigning
Count me in as one of those people who want to see Hillary Clinton continue her campaign for President of the United States. She is making history, regardless of the fact that is very doubtful she will win the Democratic nomination. Barack Obama needs to learn how to be electable in the major election in November. I would like to see in the remaining primaries how many people will vote for her. It doesn't matter at this point if she wins all the next primaries up to June 3.
Hillary is making progress for the future. She opening up doors of opportunities for many people to go out there and vote.
Stay in there, Hillary!

Iron Man Beats Speed Racer
Shellhead outraces Speed in Movie Box Office Race.
It looks like Iron Man is still invincible at the box office. The movie about the Marvel Comics armored superhero came in at first place in box office receipts. Meanwhile, the CGI loaded Speed Racer finished in a distant second (Oh, Speed!).
That's too bad. The Speed Racer movie was very enjoyable for this old fan of the 1960s cartoon Show. My adrenalin was still high when the movie ended after I saw it on Friday night. I didn't get that same high intensity effect when I just saw Iron Man the week before.
I admit that the CGI and other special effects were a little bit too much, but overall I had a good time watching Speed Racer. I didn't see any other problems with the movie at all.
I recommend this movie because it's exciting.

Hillary Gets Indiana!
The State, not Dr. Jones (Harrison Ford)
Two states had their Democratic primaries tonight: Indiana and North Carolina. Hillary won Indiana while Barack Obama won North Carolina. The race for the nomination is still tight.
It's starting to look like the 2000 Presidential Race after Election Day when no one could figure out who got elected President. That really dragged on for weeks.
It sounds like this will drag on until the convention.

Iron Man Invincible at the Box Office
Wins the Box Office Totals over the Weekend. $101 million!
I saw the Iron Man movie last night and enjoyed myself. Robert Downey Jr. was great at the dual role of Tony Stark/Iron Man. Terrance Howard was outstanding as James Rhodes (Rhodey). Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts was excellent as well. Even Jeff Bridges as Obidiah Stane was perfect casting. The movie was flawless.
According to the New York Times newspaper, the movie won first place at the box office this weekend.
Congrats, Shellhead!
