Jack Reed

I am up on Block Island for the weekend, a strange and wonderful place. The only place I know of where there are signs near the ferry that read, "...extreme drunkenness is a threat to National Security..." Jack Reed and Jim Langevin were on the island to promote the Democratic party. The held their meeting at the Yellow Kittens which a a notable island hot spot. The last time my daughter was at the Kittens, there was some reveler dancing about with a flashlight in his pants. Unexplained antlers on men's heads have also been sighted there. Strange but frankly, strange behavior is not that unusual at the Kittens. At the Jack Reed event everyone looked very respectable, and I saw more suits and ties than I expected. Jack Reed was fine and made a push for pulling the big D lever (what a shame there is no such thing any more, or at least not where I vote.) Langevin was quite funny. He said that he was the poor bastard that had to speak following Barack's speech in 2004, or words to that effect. He said it more delicately.
