Who's comin' to Greensboro tomorrow?

I'll be there for the day program for sure, but may not be able to stay for dinner. My daughter has a miserable cold and it looks like it might be spreading in the spouse direction as well.

Will I see you there?

I'll be there, Anglico

And I've decided not to stay for dinner because Iris is coming back from visiting our first grandchild. See you there!

I hope everthing is OK. I'm sorry we won't get a chance to meet. I won't get your way until probably June or July. Take care.

No worries, B

Death in the family and I had to drive to Statesville for the funeral last weekend.

I'm driving back to Taylorsville at the end of the month for my ten year (Crappers, I'm old) high school reunion. Three trips in one month is a bit more than I can handle, so I had to drop one.

In other news...

I saw Craig Weber at a local festival today. He's still not getting any support from the county or state parties. Half the time, he can't even get the county chairs on the telephone...

It's quite depressing.

Sorry for your loss and all the travels and tribulations. Stay strong.

Do good. Be nice. Have fun.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Of course, since I'm beyond my 20th reunion I feel like smacking you upside your head for saying you're old at your 10th. :)

Oh, B, come on :) You know I kid! (Although, after today's 5 hours of standing and walking through the Mullet Festival in Swansboro, I feel really old).

If you saw half the people there!

The mullett is apparently also a fish...And an excuse to visit winery booths for tiny shots of booze!

I'm at the conference in Atlanta.

AND, I'm getting sick.

Nothing like being in a strange city by yourself and feeling the "uh-oh".

CountryCrats - my thoughts, my blog.

Jesus Swept ticked me off. Too short. I loved the characters and then POOF it was over.

Hope you feel better

Converge South will be around next year and I have some ideas on how to help them unconference it. We will make better use of our BlueNC Caucus room. I might even bake peanut butter cookies. :)

Edwards Kissell post

Submitted by gregflynn on Sat, 10/14/2006 - 12:09pm.


There's a new post up at DailyKos about John Edwards and Larry last night by Carolina Voice.

My sympathies Thomas....

Submitted by momoaizo on Sat, 10/14/2006 - 11:26pm.

how are you doing?

No matter that patriotism is too often the refuge of scoundrels. Dissent, rebellion, and all-around hell-raising remain the true duty of patriots.

Robert, take care and stay well

go get some egg drop soup, that will make you feel better :)
