The AP reports:

Former President Bill Clinton plans to campaign for President Barack Obama in Ohio and Florida next week, seeking to bring the momentum of his convention speech to the nation's two largest battleground states.

Obama's campaign says details on Clinton's itinerary of campaign events were still being finalized Thursday.

Clinton gave a forceful speech at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday, calling for Obama's re-election. He has said he would campaign extensively for the Democratic ticket this fall.

2. I prefer the original Olivier version from 1981

With the hot Harry Hamlin as Perseus.

5. No doubt.

Movies today still can't top Ray Harryhausen's practical and stop motion SFX.

9. Harryhausen turned 92 this Summer

He's still going strong.

There's an interview with him on the DVD.

10. Glad I am not only one

who prefers the original one.

Just because film or TV show Is old doesn't mean It Isn't no good.

3. Oh I hope it's close to me. I told hubby last night, I'd love to hear him

in person. Don't care what the topic was just would love to hear him speak. He does it so well!

8. I just received a call from Organizing for America and he will be at the convention center

on Saturday here in West Palm..

6. I live in NW Florida--the Panhandle

So the Big Dog probably won't come here. This is a VERY Conservative part of Florida. Went solidly for Bush both times. Michelle Obama did come here in 2008 and I went to our Civic Center to hear her. I promise you that crowd (and it was a HUGE crowd) was almost floating out of that center when we left! She was awesome.

I would love to hear the Big Dog but won't bet the farm he'll come here. I feel like the chances of Obama himself coming here are even less. But WOW, if he did. I would get up at dawn to be there!!

7. Who let the BIG DOG out? Dogs against Romney should be proud!!

Who better to gnaw at the cuffs of 1% Willard!!!
