4. Who knows? Maybe THIS time...

...we'll actually meet face-to-face. Remember when you and I kept in touch via phone at Fort Worth in 2006? Maybe the three of us can grab a beer or something.

:hi:

8. That is exactly what I was remembering!

I tried to meet you folks at the bar but they were strict about the under 18 rule and would not let me bring my daughter on the premises. In Austin, I can leave her at home!

3. Do you know if there is a list online for the 16th

I'd like to see if any of our delegates made it, and if so give them pointers on the some of the caucuses in Austin. I gave up and left at 8:30 the other night, on reflection, I'm glad Clinton is hanging in there, as all the new blood this contest is creating will feed the party nationwide for years to come

7. Very safe

:)

Everyone knew what I was doing on Saturday. My vacation days roll over at the end of May, so that's not a problem.

My boss was even a little excited for me. A close co-worker is republican and she's excited about it for me.
