Apologies

I know I've said this before, but I'm going to say it again. I'm sorry I've gotten way out of the loop on all things blogging (and political as well), but I'm going to try again to get back in touch. Part of the problem is I am most interested in politics when I am taking a Poli-sci class, and that hasn't happened for quite a while.

However, next month I am transferring to George Fox University in Newberg where I will be majoring in Political Science. So you can expect to be hearing from me in years ahead. I hope to meet Former Senator Mark Hatfield while I'm there because I know he still teaches, or is at least a guest speaker in some classes.

I might as well make it known now that I am not solidly in any one's camp as far as the 2008 elections. I'm thinking Fred Thompson is a good possibility while Mitt Romney is the best of the leading moderates. But I really don't have someone I'm ready to buy a t-shirt from yet, if you know what I mean. Last year it didn't take much for me to be convinced State Senator Jason Atkinson was someone to support in the governor's election. I'm hoping I'll be as convinced of one of these people in time as I was (and still am) of him. My only fear is there's no one like him in the Presidential arena, and so far I think that fear is not unfounded.

Oddly enough, people have lives. Apologies? Why? For having one? Live it!

You will enjoy GFU I have worked with several GFU students and several go to my church as well. From what I hear, the experience is good and the education top notch. And while you are out in this odd little town, remember to take your wireless card with you when you go out for coffee because almost every shop has free Wi-Fi and good coffee.

Thanks for the advice, anon. I've heard little if any negative comments about GFU. And certainly I'll take advantage of wireless on and off campus when I can.
