Several mornings a week about three to ten guys meet for breakfast at various places, usually in Marin County, California. Most are vets. We have some amazing conversations for old guys: we have enormous experience. Our senior guy is 80 and our youngest, 44. We are WW ll and Vietnam. We talk about politics, women--no subject is off-limits. My wife calls them my "girlfriends." After our talks, I usually summarize our thoughts on the blog.

VOTING AGAINST YOUR OWN SELF INTEREST
29% of voters who voted for Obama in the last election didn't vote this time. And, this is what turned the tide. African Americans, Hispanics, young people, age 18-23. Damn. What those who didn't vote, don't get: by not voting, they voted against their own self interests. Stupid! Stupid!
