In a few minutes, I'm leaving for Sacramento, our state capitol, where I will discuss the big issues and fight for your rights. Remember: I am deeply committed to advocating for your interests.

Actually, I'm just accompanying the Keelhauler as he goes to take a test. What kind of test, I do not know. I.Q.? Paternity? Citizenship? It's not for me to say. Ours is not to reason why. Ours is but to do or die.

Plus, I hear there's a good ice cream store there, called Vic's. So, my week is planned.

Catch you on the flipside.
