On November 15th, Parks and Recreation's Leslie Knope is finally getting her wish and will meet her "ideal man," Joe Biden!

The re-elected Vice President of the United States is making a cameo appearance (above) in next week's episode of the NBC comedy that will take place in Washington D.C.

While we think it would be pretty hard to book the VP of the nation, executive producer Michael Schur says it was "so much less difficult than we ever possibly imagined" and continued:

With the re-election of President Barack Obama, The United States is on the brink of real, tangible change; change toward equality, tolerance, and respect for each other as human beings regardless of income status, religious beliefs, gender, or sexual preference.

If you have yet to do so, we insist you take a gander at Obama's FULL acceptance speech from last night's Presidential election (above), even if you voted for Mitt Romney, or for the Green Party, or whomever.

We believe the most inspiring part of his speech, and the most important to our nation's future, is the President's emphasis on working TOGETHER to create a more efficient, productive, clean and equal country and not differentiating ourselves by our political definitions (republican, democrat, liberal conservative, etc.)

These definitions have warped and been diluted over time, and even hold variant meanings to different people.

The future is about respect people! Respect yourself, but more importantly, respect each other, or we will end up crumbling under the weight of our own ignorance.

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!

The Kingdom of Spain's Constitutional Court (the highest court) has decided to uphold the legality of gay marriage, rejecting an appeal that would BAN same sex couples joining together in holy matrimony!

Spain became the third country in the WORLD to legalize gay marriage in 2005, and it would have been too sad to see them take an ignorant step back.

Congrats Spain!!!

Now if only the United States would take note from our friends across the Atlantic and allow ALL people to officiate their love, regardless of gender!

New Jersey governor Chris Christie has made his less-than-favorable opinion of Barack Obama pretty clear over the course of his presidency, but in light of Hurricane Sandy, the Republican has set aside his differences with the Democrat.

While visiting the Brigantine Beach Community Center and speaking to refugees of the storm, they both praised each other's response to the disaster.

When Obama told the crowd, “I want to let you know that your governor is working overtime," Christie added:

Metta World Peace ran into the Stanley cup at the Staples center in El Lay over the weekend.

It was outside the team's locker room and he was really innerested in learning more about the cup.

First, he asked if the cup had been touched by George Washington.

Yes, the first president of the United States, George Washington.

And the answer is no, he missed that opportunity by about 100 years.

Then he asked if anyone had ever eaten almonds out of the cup.

Check out the video (above) to watch almonds get eaten out of the Stanley cup for the first time!
