I got to spent this weekend in Austin, Texas for a political event. About 75 20 or 30 something's came from all over the US to meet, network, and socialize. I had never been to Austin before, so I was looking forward to this for a while (and the 3 day weekend!). Austin was a blast ... those Texans sure know how to party. 6th Street, which is the bar scene in Austin (much like Division or Rush Street in Downtown Chicago) is nuts. I haven't partied this hard in a very long time ... now that I am 30 I can not do the 'college party' scene that well.

Not only did he win (yes, I know, its not certified everywhere) the electoral college, he won the popular vote by over 3 million votes. Most people do not realize that the last president to win the electoral and popular vote contests was President Bush Senior in 1988. So no matter how you look at it, Bush won. But not only did Bush win, but the Republican counts in both the House and Senate went up. A

Well, this little game called Halo 2 is coming out for the XBox today. Now, being an old school Doom and Quake person, I still can not get into a first-person shooter without a mouse and keyboard. But I did enjoy Halo and Halo 2 looks great. And look how big a deal this is ... go to microsoft.com and see. Anyone get it yet?
