Interesting mix of stories here, from the important to the bizarre. Love the last three - glad to know folks at 360 take the time to have a good laugh.

Woo Hoo…so I get a morning buzz and an afternoon buzz from you all now!? You really trying to keep us messed up and happy huh! LOL

It was horrific to see the devastation that occurred across the south last night. And it is so sad that so many people lost their lives! Weather is such a strange and unpredictable thing! My thoughts and prayers go out to all of those affected. I hope they get help soon!

Nothing surprises me about al Qaeda training children now. They will use any strategy if they think it’ll get good results!

Ah yes anything to avoid working is fine by me.
People eyeball me and my friends laughing at an article in the morning
Now they can think we’re crazy all day long.

I M 63 years old and for the first time in a long time I am proud of the process. Our young are standing up and saying the only thing worse than an old white man running the country is an old white woman. John McCain and the Clintons are so old school that the youth of our country are saying, ‘Not this time.’

If it’s coffee for the morning buzz, what’s the beverage of choice for the happy hour of late afternoon? Heaven help us.
You gave an interesting amount of news for a buzzy afternoon. I’d like to hear about our troops. I know I’m not alone when I say Iraq and Afghanistan fell off the radar. Please bring it back to the AC360 program.
Well the watercooler has plenty of stories to eavesdrop on this afternoon…Enough to last until the morning buzz rolls again.

IRAQ TROOPS LEFT OUT IN VOTING FOR THE COUNTRY THEY FIGHT FOR

I talked to my husband today and he is in IRAQ . I asked him if he voted because the volunteers at the polls had told me he should have gotten to beable to send his vote in ahead of time.

Well that is not the fact. There are hundreds of thousands of troops all over this world who love their country and are willing to put their life on the line for it and everyone in it .

My husband is there for over a year and he is really disappointed.

I love my country and I am willing to make sacrifices for it. But this is like my husband said , extremely disappointing .

I am going to do what I can to let the public know about our leaders not making sure that our troops, our heros, our brothers sisters mothers fathers daughters sons wifes and husbands and most of all AMERICANS that were not able to vote for their country future.
