: Odds and Ends
-Still no word yet from CNU or ODU. I'll give them a few more days before the endless pestering begins.
-Football season starts this weekend. Whoever decided both Hampton and ODU would open at home in the same weekend is so not my favorite person right now.
-Went to a health care town hall last night held by Rep. Bobby Scott. It was more civil than I expected, frankly, with a large crowd that was roughly 60-40 in favor of reform. It wasn't the abject disaster that we see on TV, but I have to question the moron who brought up Hitler. Hitler? Seriously? Boy, someone brought their Rush Limbaugh talking points ...
Still, glad I went. I'd never been to anything like that before. Then again, there's never really been an issue I cared about quite this much.
-Odd side effect of going to the town hall? It wound up being a mini-reunion of ODU Student Ambassadors. I ran into Kenisha, who used to be our advisor in the Alumni Office (back when SA was still affiliated with that office), Hugo (who was SA Vice President after I was) and Andrew, who was another fellow SA with me.
It was kinda weird and cool at the same time -- especially since I won't be able to make the RA/SA Reunion at ODU on the 26th. Thank you, Hampton ...
