January 12, 2004 October is Koufax Pledge Drive month

The Note

I made The Note today. With all the swirling rush of fast-paced postings and hundreds of comments on the poliblogs -- eschaton and kos in particular, my quiet little project bore fruit today. The first Noted principal-chiefs meet in the East. The first Noted tribal council candidate endorsement in the East. The first (and necessarily the only) Noted endorsement by a tribe of a candidate other than the governor of the state surrounding the tribe. Please Note: Working with primary campaigns and tribal councils is like herding cats. Pole cats.

More importantly, I had to sign papers today, taking on the awful responsibility of fiduciary duty for an untold number of boxes of Girl Scout cookies, and ensuring the adult supervision of a child embarked on a temporary career of commerce in the public interest. It is a good thing I like cookies.

ah,
who was endorsed ?

And, on behalf of dentists everywhere, thanks for the business!*


*I'm not a dentist, I just subsidize one regularly.

As a former Girl Scout, GS camp counselor and GS leader (who served as troop cookie coordinator when no parents would volunteer, even though at the time I had no children), I salute your devotion to the cause.

If I hadn't given up wheat for 2004 I would email you an order. Good luck!

No wheat in those coconut-chocolate cookies, whatchacallem, I don't think... :)

Awesome responsibility with the budding salesperson!

I believe you're thinking of Samoas. Personally, I go for Thin Mint and Trefoils (shortbread).
