Andrea,

Now you have really upped the ante as far as Kerry is concerned.  Hockey Player, windsurfer, speaks French...too much!  Well, that's where my vote (my FIRST, by the way) is going...(just became US citizen last year).  

I have learned that the only thing that is truly perfect in this earth, is..the earth "herself".   Hence, I regard all weathers, vistas, and geographies as perfect.  If not convenient for us humans, who have agendas, traffic jams, etc....tough sh..it.

Moonlight night on a snow-covered path, in the Maryland forest with stars all around and my skis just swishing through the crisp snow...unfathomable, really.   Not that I don't love a Florida Beach with the waves caressing the shore, also.   "Different...all the same...", as a favorite songster of ours would say!

Peace,

Gene
