Well, I have a new t-shirt.......and here's how I came by it.......
Last January, my good friend WCGreen went to work for an excellent Judge named Peter Sikora. He was running for a spot on the Ohio Supreme Court....

Greatly to my surprise, I discovered that I was financially able to support his candidate.....

So, I did, though not as much as I would have liked to. But, you do what you can do, and I did.....

Even though Judge Sikora lost, alas, my little contributions were much appreciated.....

And so I recently was the happy recipient of this brilliant t-shirt!

4. My dear Redstone.....
This is certainly true!

I am using it to wear to the gym.....and today was the first time I did so...

I did get a few more looks than I normally do, I must say.

5. Ooooh...
careful...Los Angelinos don't like judges with foreign-sounding last names!

...just ask our new coffee-shop-owner-turned-judge...she's from Manhattan Beach, IIRC. ;)

6. My dear huskerlaw!
Oh, don't I know it!

BTW, I did NOT vote for the bagel shop lady....

She is not qualified, IMHO, anyhow......

I don't even care if she is a Democrat....

Even though our club did endorse her...

She spoke at our last meeting, and I was singularly unimpressed.....

:shrug:



Good to see you tonight! :hug:

11. That whole thing
really freaked me out.

Being a lawyer...and a Democrat.

I'm all for unseating the Repubs, obviously, but the bagel lady kinda reminds me of Harriet Myers, experience-wise.

And I do think the judge's last name worked against her, which is highly unfortunate.

Ah well...it wouldn't be LA without weird legal dramas.


Totally OT, but...I hope you had/have a great anniversary!

:hug:

12. Yeah, I was weirded out by it as well.....
At least old Ahnold did something right.....he reinstated the unseated judge!

Thanks for the OT thoughts!

We are about to head out to McCormick and Schmick's (sp?) shortly!

I will be imbibing! :woohoo:

And, yes, my husband took the pictures before I went to the gym today.....

I truly believe in putting my money where my mouth is.....

And I was proud to help support WC's man!
