Kate and I attended Cliff Bard's wedding tonight at The Stockade Inn in Schenectady. It was very nice. We had the pleasure of sitting with Mike Stiles. I warned Kate during the cocktail hour that He was crazy. She was surprised by his behavior, I however was not. Mike handed out the attached bumper sticker to EVERYONE at the wedding.

Cyndy made me aware that christmas.organizedhome.com says I should have started my Christmas 2010 planning last weekend.
