I flipped a trailer full of tomatoes on 99 when I was working as a truck driver back in 2002 - trailer brakes failed as I was taking the exit from 80 on to 99 South. Shut down that interchange for about 5 hours

There’s an old saying, “Never meet your heroes.” I think that’s some of the worst advice I’ve ever heard. Mikhail Gorbachev was one of my heroes, and it was an honor and a joy to meet him. I was unbelievably lucky to call him a friend. All of us can learn from his fantastic life.

So the big NYT article about California high speed rail is not actually saying anything new. It's the latest from a former LA Times reporter who spent the last 12 years writing based hit pieces about the project. I shut my blog down years ago. But it's time to debunk him again.

My band made our first music video back in 2004, actually shot on film! At some point the final file disappeared & was lost for years, but I'm happy to see that the filmmaker found it and posted it to YouTube - total Sacto wayback machine!

Dave Wasserman Cook Political Report I’ll take a bet on CA49 and CA13. Loser buys lunch. Levin’s got a good district and Gray is a perfect fit for a Dem candidate in the Central Valley.
