Will voters overturn the Florida gay marriage ban? Will Pitbull do us a favor and just run for governor already?
Millions of people around the globe hope for world peace, but will it actually happen?
A week prior to the start of the World Cup, I may have been able to name three players on the U.S. men’s national soccer team. And one of them would have definitely been Landon Donovan (oops).
