The remains are being auctioned on eBay. Steffen of Cape Girardeau, gave every Vick card she owned to her dogs and let them go to town on the images of the Atlanta Falcons quarterback who is scheduled to plead guilty to a federal dogfighting charge Monday.

Vikki's Note: Yesterday I read that all the dogs taken from Michael Vick's home would have to be destroyed since, obviously, they can't be magically transformed into gentle and loving pets. My heart broke all over again for those poor dogs. Michael Vick has been suspended from the NFL *indefinitely.* I hope that *indefinitely* becomes a synonym for *forever* in his case!

Baked potato, cottage cheese, and sliced tomatoes. :)

Maybe now life can return to normal?

Sad, isn't it? Here's my advice for anyone wanting to be President or Governor of IL: pay careful attention to what the incumbents are doing, and then do the opposite!

This is my old-age planning, too! :)
