8. I like this part:

''Like most pilots, I'll fly anything I can get my hands on that I'm licensed to or allowed to,'' Kerry told the Globe. ''I have a commercial, instrument , and glider rating and also a seaplane rating. I've flown now for 35 years since I got my license back in '66. ''

Ha.

13. when was this? :-)

[noamnety]

15. That was in August, in Taylor MI

After the rally almost everyone left, and there was a (shortened) softball game with union workers and firefighters. After watching him run a base, my husband's reaction was "Damn, how old is he??" (impressed with how quick he was running)

(edit to remove snowboard picture, I see someone else posted it above)
