I had not seen it....thank you so much for the heads up, Cha.

Wrote myself a note to buy it tomorrow. I'm off and going to see the wee ones in our family! I can't wait!

Obama tweaks Boston over hockey finals



President Obama went to Boston on Wednesday and got booed a little -- though that's what happens when you talk smack about a city's sports team.

Just hours before the start of hockey's Stanley Cup finals, Obama couldn't help but point out to a Boston campaign rally that their Bruins are facing off against the Chicago Black Hawks -- the pride of the president's hometown.
SNIP:

As some of the crowd booed -- in a friendly way, we hasten to add -- Obama told them, "I don't want to make y'all feel bad -- I want y'all to feel good."

Chicago and Boston, two of the oldest franchises in the National Hockey League, play the first game in a best-of-seven series Wednesday night in Chicago.
