Well, damn. That is some excellent news, thanks for sharing. :)

Well for every victory there is a disappointment. Today I had a business brunch w/ client from San Francisco. I don’t know why out of towners always have to comment about Obama. I guess it is because it is Chicago. Anyway he brought up education and Bill Ayers. He said “it is ashamed the way he was demonized…Do you think others in Chicago think he is a danger?”

I kept silent, my colleges were there and they know how I feel about the issue. It was an awkward moment. I changed the topic to California and asked how he felt about the gubernatorial election and he said “no way a conservative will win CA” I brought up the Ebay CEO, he said no way.
I started gazing off. The convo was getting to liberal for me. I hate having to shut up but I would get reprimanded if I told people what I really think.
