Oh what fun you will have.  
My son is part of the national guard down there. He is pretty pumped about it.

It's estimated to bring $148 million to Minnesota.... so yeah.... I'd say a chunk of change at least, lol.

Elena, I did catch the 'no need to comment', though how exciting for you to 'have' to be involved with the RNC!  Was so impressed, actually watched the entire DNC (yikes, now that sounds like D & C!?!!)  It's in my  blood to get so into presidential politics, and first, I'm aware we must fill our own shoes, regardless of how big our grandfather's feet were, though dear Grandpa was an honest  two-term state senator who had stood on platform with John F. Kennedy when he'd campaigned in Minnesota in '61 or '62 (hey, I was five or six years old) .  Politics were so different back in the day when more actually had integrity.  Close familial ties with Humphrey, Anderson, Mondale and others, although I try SO hard to read between the lines of the races. have not always gone Democrat 'just because.'  .  Was impressed by the nomination acceptance last night, although it was surreal, with the media  production,  it so much like watching  a feature movie. Will definitely watch the RNC.   Doesn't matter which candidate wins--the only power he'll have is the 'veto,' in my optic-neuritic eyes!  Hope nobody takes offense to my wanting to share here....like I said, what a relative accomplished was his doing, nothing to do with me, other than a child's view and adult recollection of an amazing experience.  Ooopsie, gotta get to bed -- hey, I'll be watchin' for 'ya!  hee, hee!  Enjoy!  hugs, Patti  (actually, I will find political chat rooms for this free expression.....

See -- now I think it would be fun!!!  But since it's your job -- you think it's the norm......There is a segment on the Kare 11 show with Rena Sxxxxxxopolis to switch jobs -- you could be in front of the camera!!! 

Have fun!!!!

Cool to see what it looks like inside, since there is so much hype outside (KWIM). Hope that all the stress is worth it. So what do you do? I don't think I have ever seen you on TV.

I work for the state and we have been "planning" for a year now. I can't wait until this is over and that we "St. Paul" never does this again. Now we get to deal with all the protesters and the HUGE inconvenience this is causing. I didn't take next week off but I will start work around 5:30-6:00 so that I can get out of town before most activities start.
Go away RNC!
