And here we go...




Well some of us were privy to a whirlwind of emails that went around today regarding Obama vs. McCain...wow, we have come a long way from the days where the biggest opinions we had were in regards to Duran Duran vs Def Leppard, preppy vs rocker, Vans vs Converse, or wine coolers vs cheap beer! While I'm not a huge fan of politics myself, I do appreciate the importance and I love the dialogue between so many of us who have known each other for several decades. I'm fascinated how different we all are considering how we were all aligned back in the day before politics played a more significant role in our lives. Regardless of your political affiliation, nobody can deny that this is a very historical time in our country. I wanted to invite you to keep up the conversation here. The consensus so far is some of us are for Obama, some for McCain and some of us...well some of us would rather have a beer and watch the rest of you guys duke it out. So - what are your thoughts??? Regardless, VOTE! Cheers! ~T

Here's an 80's flashback for you. I play soccer here in Santa Barbara with Martin Gore. MARTIN GORE!!!!! He was my idol in high school. Can anybody name the group he was with?

Depeche Mode (thank god for google!)Didn't you used to have hair like him?

HAM said...

That is awesome Klacking.

But Scott---People are people so why should it be, that you and him should get along so perfectly?

Acutally that might be Tears for Fears. I thought that was a Depeche Mode Song...

Scott you are great. Sorry Bay to Breakers fell through but we will see you at the Pre-Reunion Party!

I know!!!!! He was my idol. And yes, I had his hair style (just not as cool). Now it's just really weird. If somebody would've told me 20 (yikes) years ago I'd be playing soccer with him.....ya, right!

Thanks Jen. Now I have People Are People stuck in my head.

Oh I just had an idea--Scott see if you can get Depeche Mode to play at our reunion party or just the reunion......

Who sang People are People, I am still stuck on who sings it?
