"Barack Obama, raised by a single mother and his grandparents, born with no discernible financial advantages, clocked Hillary Clinton, clocked John McCain, and got himself elected the first African-American president of the United States. He got himself elected in a country that was still lynching black people when he was a child. Barack Obama, whatever you may think of his politics, doesn't need anyone telling him to man up."

I know the last one was only like a month ago, but we should do another one, I’m bored and it’s cold out.

maybe this time i won’t fall off my bike right after. MAYBE.

Due to my girls music program and then a family flu situation, I have been shut out of both meetups. Hopefully if we have another one, lady luck will be on my side.

We should just all go to my apartment, play Beatles Rock Band, and drink beer.

YES. awesome plan!
