49. I remember Auntie Pinko (I think that was 'her' name)

Mon Jan 20, 2025, 12:45 PM

Monday

I felt all alone in my very republican county. I felt like screaming and hollering at the run up to the Iraq War. Auntie showed me a way to express myself without coming across as a nut.
Then Omaha Steve showed me how to run for office.
DU has been a family, an education and a home.
Thank you.
Happy Anniversary.
