I nominate Ed Schultz for.....

...The Citizens Presidential Medal!!!

There are 3 people who have been nominated. All are good, however, I think we can make an impact if we mobilize and make Ed Schultz the receiver of this. What a friggin boost it would be for workers across the country.

Is this a good idea or what?

I thought of it because I have been trying for so long to find a job. Today I had an interview with a non-profit. I felt good about how it went.

Thirty minutes ago they called me offering me the position. I am still in shock. But then I saw this from the WH in my e-mail in box. I thought of "Big Eddie". I admire him greatly for what he does for workers.

I think I'm going to have a stiff drink. I deserve it.!!

After a year and a half of pounding pavement since returning from China I was due. Hasen't sunk in though.

A 7 & 7 is being enjoyed as we speak.

Cheers

for small American businesses after a two year absence. One guy from Mn. called in with his cool iPhone/tablet/headphone/Macbook wood cases. I think the guy has a winner. The Mahogany case is sharp.

I could have been more eloquent, but my mind is tired.
