The Wet Hot American Summer mailing list alerted me to some awesome things happening on Monday. Sadly, I do not think I will have the money to go, but I will post them here for posterity. Now, sure, I may someday end up voting for Dean, but this post's focus is on how, if I had 1250 to 1500 extra dollars, I would have plans for monday even no matter who was involved in these events. So, I am posting them as a public service to you, in case you have that kind of money. Oh, should I mention that today is my birthday? No, really. I'm not just saying that to get a couple thousand bucks... Well, without further ado, here is some text straight from the Dean website:
