Last night was my father-in-law’s birthday, so the in-laws came to town and we all went out on the town. We first went to the Original Saratoga Springs Brew Pub, which we knew was closing since it’s been sold, but were saddened to find that they’ve run dry and only have two crappy beers on […]

When I first looked at this electoral polling map last night, Kerry was ahead based on current poll results. Today’s polling puts Bush slightly ahead.
