Hey Joe!
Great meeting you at the record fair. I'll try and find a good home for the US Navy Carriers DVD.

Tue. 10/28/08 7:41pm Joe:

Thanks, EL! Nice to meet you, too!

Tue. 10/28/08 8:00pm luis:

loved the adlai stevenson! looking forward to the links -- my grandpa helped with his ill-fated yet very noble and (gasp) intellectual campaign, and my uncle just wrote an article in Chicago Magazine about the parallels between Adlai and Barack.

Tue. 10/28/08 8:02pm Lani:

Thanks, Joe! You made my day :)

Fri. 10/31/08 5:50pm Mitch:

There's a problem with the Ike link. There's a double quote character on the end that shouldn't be there.

Tue. 11/4/08 11:59am Joe:

Mitch, that link should be operable now.
