In the interests of keeping this Group as friendly and non-combative as possible, I would like to discourage the discussion of the political campaign and the candidates. Just think of it as a first date and avoid topics around politics, religion, and kids.

Thanks,
- Rufus

Ps. I'm just joking about the kids. We're a family friendly group and what better to cheer up a day than by sending out a cute kid photo.

... Unless your kid is Republican. Or Catholic.

    Yeah, but what [Name edited] didn’t realize is that if you use the following cipher:

    27 – 36 – 39 – 57 – 63 – 64 – 144 – 146

    you get “Go Obama”

    Boo! Post the rest of what happened. Laurie was telling me about it last night (before he freaked out from ‘claustrophobia’ at the Elbo Room and ran off home — FWIW, I think it was more that he’d had enough of Bryan and I frat boying it up ;-) ), and it was hilarious!
