I got this great box in the mail.

Says it’s from Tom.

Hey, it looks like a cool trophy!

Wait a second…

That’s not a trophy…it’s an antenna.

Better luck next time.

BBQ later.

Yes, Neil and I really are running for President/Vice President this fall. It’s been in the works for quite a while. Check out the website.

Coronavirus has hampered a lot of the legwork we will need to do as independent candidates, but we are collecting signatures to get on the ballot. If you are a Pennsylvania resident, please download our signature collection page, get that as filled out as possible and send it back to the campaign manager. Our legal team still needs to look that over, and get us up and running for signatures elsewhere, so stay tuned for updates. No one is trying to get arrested here.

Be safe, stay home, don’t get hacked by Tom.

I got the initial campaign website up and running. It looks like signature collection will be able to start on March 13th.

Neil and Dylan haven’t actually done anything to work toward being elected President and Vice President in 2020, yet.

They are polling above several of the more mainstream candidates.

I’m appointing myself campaign manager. I’m hopeful there isn’t much paperwork.

Or other work.

I haven’t been paying attention but I assume the Libertarian Party has been steadily increasing in national importance since the campaign was launched in the mid-90s. I’ll check back later but the campaign web page is down. Get what you pay for with Geocities these days, I guess.

I don’t think Dylan has looked at this site in a while, but I know some other people still might. I figured it was safe to put this here.

I’m going to throw a party at Dylan’s house. Next month.

Technically, he invited me and Rose over for a weekend next month. In the email, he wrote +whoever to include families/spouses but I’m going with a more literal interpretation. This will be the ultimate pop-in. The dates are May 4-6th. Location is Dylan’s house (near Canonsburg, PA). Lodging is free, he’s not going to turn anyone away and there are spare bunkbeds, couches, etc – enough to go around. I think he probably wants to drink wine and talk about electric cars, but I’ve got a better plan.

Friday May 4th – People arrive. Dylan gets annoyed as he realizes we threw a reunion at his house, but isn’t really mad.

Order a massive stack of pizzas

Arnot Movie Marathon – Carpool, The Man Who Knew Too Little, Alias, the Star Wars movies out of order.

Stay up too late playing 12 player Mario Kart on the Switch

Saturday May 5th – Continue prior activities, scavenger hunt, grilling of tasty meats and cheeses, board games. Catch up on people’s lives.

Sunday May 6th – Really unreasonably big breakfast. Most people leave.

Monday 7th – People too lazy to leave on Sunday leave.

I don’t think we should over-think this, but hit me up on MySpace or ICQ if you want to RSVP.

Gonna shut this down in the next few days. Scott, Rose, Paul, Charlie, etc – you guys make sure to archive your stuff from the servers. Thanks for checking in all these years. {HACKED BY TOM – LAST I HEARD THE SITE ISN’T GOING ANYWHERE, BUT DON’T EXPECT THE CONTENT TO IMPROVE}

Not an exaggeration to suggest I’m a little behind on photo sharing. Let’s work on that.
