CONCEPT
it as it is…
Jeff Danziger
I’ve displayed the same political in the three posts for two reasons.
The first reason is SYMBOLIC.
Today I went to a rally for the DNC in Skokie.
While I still don’t want to stick my neck out too far in terms of party affiliation, I don’t want to not get caught telling my kids that I was involved in this election.

But I want to post frequently and passionately. I want this blog to be an echo of the best of what’s in my head.

Late August #2: Medici, OutFoxed, Millennium Park
DIARY
Within a couple days of getting back, I had a day with Jessica and Elisabeth.
