Barack Obama in Eugene on Friday
For those of you who I told I would be home tonight, I apologize. I am not coming home because I will be going to Mac Court to see Barack Obama. Or at least I think I am. Here's what the e-mail said:
Please join Barack Obama at a Stand for Change Rally in Eugene, where he'll talk about his vision for bringing America together and creating the kind of change we can believe in.It says doors open at 7 and the event begins at 9. That leads me to believe that he's going to be there speaking, right? Well, I just was looking around his website and noticed that he's also scheduled for a similar event in Portland that same night, doors opening at 7:30, event starting at 9:30.
Even by plane it would be impossible to get from Eugene to Portland in 30 minutes, so will somebody please let me know what's going on? If it's a video feed or some crap like that, I'm not going to be very happy.
Anyways, I'll update you if I hear anything, but until then, I'll be playing video games, watching movies, and dreaming of Vegas.

Cool Kev. I remember so long ago on campus in 1976 when I watched Jimmy Carter come to campus, and then I canvassed for him all over Eugene. I know u will have a great time. Obviously, u have found out by now that he will be in Portland in the am, Salem in the early pm, and in Eugene at Mac Court in the pm. That ought to be alot of fun for you.
Did you see his entire speech on race yesterday? So eloquent and so amazing. Go Barack!
Love you,
Can't wait to see you when you get home.

AHH! I had not found that out, but I must be retarded for not looking at that.
And yes, I did see that. It was amazing. And he wrote it all himself.
See you Saturday!
