Jim Hightower Was Here

I've been meaning to write about Jim Hightowers appearance at Town Hall Seattle. Ever since we got back home Thursday night, I've been meaning to write about what a pleasure it was to actually meet Jim Hightower and shake his hand. Meaning to write about what an awesome job Noemie Maxwell did organizing the event. Meaning to write about how great the Seattle Peace Chorus was and how they warmed up the crowd before Jim spoke. Meaning to write about how funny and inspiring Hightower was. Meaning to write about what a great time everyone had.

But like my Grandma used to say, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions".

At least I was on the ball enough to get David Postman to correctly refer to Jim Hightower as a populist rather than simply as a lefty. (read the comments)
