Good evening everyone. Where’s this week’s update you may ask…well, I’m presently taking a bit of vacation time to enjoy the host of board gaming activities at PrezCon in Charlottesville, VA.

Well, it is only three and a half months to the next RPV convention. Excited yet? You should be. Although 2008 was my first, I eagerly look forward to the second. It is a great time to meet fellow delegates, speak with candidates and elected officials, and party like it is 1984…er maybe like it [...]
