*Update: No sooner than I post this I get my "special invitation" from Sarah Jessica Parker
"Friend --
It's my honor to invite you to take part in an event I'm hosting at my home with the President and First Lady on June 14th.
If you can make a donation of any amount today, you'll be automatically entered to win two tickets to New York to join us.
Just before Election Day in 2008, I went to an Obama campaign office in New York and called some undecided voters.
I believed then, as I do now, that if we all chipped in and did our part, we would not only make history, but create meaningful change that so many Americans needed.
For me, this election is even more important than 2008.
As a woman, a mother, and an entrepreneur, I need to believe our country can be a place where everyone has a fair shot at success.
This November's election will determine whether we get to keep moving forward, or if we're forced to go back to policies that ask people like my middle-class family in Ohio to carry the burden -- while people like me, who don't need tax breaks, get extra help.
I'm hosting this event on June 14th because there is so much at stake this year, and I want to keep doing what I can.
I hope you'll help me welcome President Obama and the First Lady to New York.
It should be fabulous.
Donate $3 or whatever you can to be automatically entered to win:

Hope to see you there,
Sarah Jessica"

It's great to be a big shot when you win the Obama Lottery.
No thanks! I heard that they are serving calamari for dinner.

I'm not competing for this one. I'm still licking my wounds after coming within one digit of winning the 50:50 raffle at the Reclaiming Our Heritage celebration at the Milwaukee VA grounds.
ReplyDeleteIf George Clooney hosts another one, my dearest friend would want me to enter.
Squid, we have something in common: I don't like calamari either.
My first exposure to calamari (I originally knew it as only squid)was using it as fish bait for specks in Peconic Bay. It was only a little later that I discovered it fried in Little Italy, and in contrast to you two, I LOVE IT!!! Scarf some down every chance I get, although what we get around here is fair to middling at best.
