Brian is surely a stately beast.

I need to remember to take my camera in the car with me, so I don’t miss opportunities like this one!

PA roads were the worst I’ve ever been on til then or since. Are they still that bad?

Mostly. Farm roads, main roads, interstates. Bridges. Horrible shape.

So sorry for all the Croft Mudpuppies – we in NC know just how you feel (Jesse was in the Senate for a looong time!)

I suggested Prof Hill for SCOTUS at whitehouse.gov. Very dignified woman.

39 Lainey…

Although I have no doubts that happens, it is more a problem of apathy, indifference, a lack of concern or the impression that one cannot make a difference, so why bother. This is apparent in any election, in any state, for any position. When we see a 25-30% voter turnout, we fall into one of two camps. We are either the active participant, or the passive observer. The challenge is to get more individuals interested in the outcome. The more the members of the latter camp see no real changes made that directly affect them personally, the more disillusioned they can become. I believe that being informed is the key. The more you know, the better your decisions. Forums/posts/blogs like this one are just now coming into the mainstream. It make take a while longer, but if The Mudflats is any indication of the new direction, we may yet help many more see the light. Call it curiosity. Call it an inquisitive mind. Call it the new drug of the information highway. Whatever you choose, it has only just begun. I see that light. The light of truth.

End of rant.

Free drinks and bring your car, as long as you fold the silver. lol.

This is too tense. Sullivan better not be around when I get up.

All the best.

By my estimates, there will be about 42,000 votes cast, which is still only about 22% of the number of registered voters in Anchorage.
