I was born in a log cabin which I built with my own two hands. Raised in Ohio, I lived in Boston, New Jersey and California before settling in Austin, Texas.

“Kamala is not talking, Barack’s not talking, [Joe] Biden’s not talking,” one Arizona voter who went to see Ocasio-Cortez and Sanders speak in Tempe this month told Mother Jones. “Right now, he [Sanders] is the only one talking, and he’s the only one making sense.”

Driving the Dogs: For almost two years, I've been driving dogs and cats from various places in Texas to Austin Pets Alive. Usually, it's one-to-four critters in my car, but sometimes it's a LOT, and I drove the APA van. 1/
