you have a long way to go to catch up to my quantity of mistakes…

Here’s a little experiment to try out; next time you’re standing in line, at the grocery store or the local bigbox, ask the person next to you which county council district they live in. Try it a few times and see how many people can answer without hesitation.

Steve, would a good follow up question be, “did you vote in the last odd year election?” There may be a correlation.
Nah, I always try to steer conversations away from things that will just end up making me sad.
