Time’s pretty close to what RunKeeper reported…I started it before crossing the starting line, so it has another couple of minutes.

Free beer for all the r*nners…just bring your bib. Stopped in while trying to find a place for Uber to pick me up…probably won’t be here as Koval is a shitshow and it’d take forever for the driver to get here, but I think I’m closer to where I can get a ride. In the meantime…free beer!

Lining up for the 10k

Prelube. (In the glass: Left Hand Nitro Milk Stout.)

Carb loading. :)

Checked in for Sunday.

“But there are some areas that the federal government must address directly and strongly. One of these is the problem of illegal immigration. After years and years of neglect, this administration has taken a strong stand to stiffen protection on our borders.”

“We are increasing border controls by 50%; we are increasing inspections to prevent the hiring of illegal immigrants. And tonight, I announce I will sign an executive order to deny federal contracts to businesses that hire illegal immigrants.”

“Let me be clear: we are still a nation of immigrants; we honor all those immigrants who are working hard to become new citizens. But we are also a nation of laws.”

Donald Trump in 2018? Nope. Those quotes are from Bill Clinton in 1996, at the State of the Union address:

I don’t hear anybody calling Slick Willie a racist. I wonder why?

(Probably because Clinton’s border-enforcement efforts proved to be just as toothless as those of his predecessors…and most of his successors.)

Heineken, schmeineken…

The mask slips:

Full parking lot at the polling place this afternoon…still got in and out in maybe 10-15 minutes.
