Survey

Our phone number came up in some random survey about the election, and of course I’m more than happy to tell them my opinions! Which is the opposite of Yut so it works out rather well — the minute that Yut hears that it’s a survey he puts the phone on speaker and hands [...]

Second Out of Three, This Year

Okay, I believe in voting, but dooooooood!!! I’m voting again — this time in the California state primary election, as in the primaries for US Representatives, the State Senators, etcetc, state stuff.
