I think I am probably the only person that reads this site that this applies too, but there is a special election coming up on December 11th, for VA-1, US Congress. This includes the Fredericksburg area, through the Northern Neck, and on down to Williamsburg and environs. Our Representative, Jo Ann Davis (R), died, kind [...]
Check this out. Apparently, in order to vote in the Republican primaries in Virginia next year, voters will be required to sign an oath of loyalty to the eventual nominee. You will swear to vote for whichever Republican wins, according to the story. Sooooo, say you are pro-life. So you vote for Huckabee or something. [...]
I assure you the video is way better than this still, but I currently am not allowed to show the video to anyone. You’ll have to deal.
Oh wait he did! He talks about leaving the RTD/Brick and other awesome type things. Also if you are bored, check out this interview we did with Pete ages ago.

But seriously folks. The new gmail looks almost identical — although they’ve tightened up the typography I think. It [...]
