Sometime after the South Carolina debate Plouffe got a call from a senior Edwards Advisor who said Edwards was willing to announce the end of his campaign and join forces with Obama to defeat Clinton.

Today was about the gloomiest day ever in KC. Overcast sky, windy and about 33 degrees. A day of mourning indeed.
My old boss from the now closed Recycled Sound record store died in her home last night. For some details on her check out the Star article and the Wayward Pitch Blog story. I worked at RS for about 4 years. The last years were tough times for the shop. MP3s were really starting to kill the record stores and Anne tried her best to keep the store going but it didn't last.

One of my first tests on 3D rendering - its been a while, but the whole process has been as fun and relaxing as I had hoped. Need to focus more on writing, but have such baggage around that now I find it hard to focus.
