Message To Skinner, et al., ...

As you may know, there is a measure of concern among the members of the African-American Group regarding the likely response of a segment of DU towards another segment of DU, based on the likely events of the near future, i.e., the SC Primaries and Super Tuesday.

It is to this, I wish Skinner, et al., god-speed, a well rested trigger finger, and an ample supply of marble/granite for your efforts and up-coming days.

You might wish to put Jimmy Johns and Starbucks on speed dial!

haven't been to Potbelly's yet. Firehouse Subs beats Jimmy Johns. I usually go elsewhere, though, for sandwiches. For deli style sandwiches it is either Weinberger's Deli in Grapevine, or Carshon's Deli in Fort Worth. For a Cuban I go to Cuco's Sandwich Shop. This one is dangerously close to my house (less than a mile)

with his kills for the public. The man has his employees, minimum wage earners, sign non competition clauses so they can't work for another sandwich place for 2 years after they leave JJ's. Union buster, major Republican donor and a constant prop and rhetorical device of the Mitt Romney campaign. Donor to and booster of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, no less.

Hillary is going to do nicely in SC. The SC primary was less ugly than it was in 08, so that's progress I think.
