Quick Update
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Thu, 01/20/2005 - 21:44I am heading to a conference in DC for the next couple of days, so there is a good chance that I won't be updating this site, or responding to emails.
Also, I've had a lot of problems with my site being slow because of various links that I had in the lower left corner (SiteMeter, Flickr, etc). I've turned off all of that stuff for the time being. I may turn it back on later. We'll see.
Celebrating the Inauguration
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Thu, 01/20/2005 - 13:48Today is the inauguration of George Bush to his second term and I’ve been trying to figure out what I want to say about it. Around the country, there are vigils against the war. Some people are vowing not to spend any money today. Some websites are wearing black today as a sign of mourning.
I believe that Bush’s foreign policy, economic policy, and domestic policies have significantly damaged our country. They have damaged our reputation abroad, they have created massive governmental debt and they have loosened the protections that are so important to our citizens. I see no reason to rejoice about the re-election or ‘honor’ what George Bush has done.

Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Thu, 01/20/2005 - 13:39I have just received an email from a member of the Connecticut Democratic State Central Committee confirming:
DSCC met last night to elect new officers-
Chairman: Nancy DiNardo replacing George Jepsen
Vice-Chairman: Rep. Steve Fontana replacing Dot Mrowka
Secretary: Barbara Gordon
Treasurer: Emma Pierce replacing Ella Cromwell
The new term begins February 1.
I'm excited about the new leadership, and I wish them well.

This makes me a WAHD, (Work at home Dad) today. I'm getting a few things done, but will need to be toddler taxi service shortly.
