Obit

On a somber note - third party political operative Doug Freidline passed away at 49 the other day. I met Doug in Detroit at a Reform Party meeting, where we spent an evening in a bar with several other folks at a Reform Party convention in the mid 90's. Jesse Ventura was supposed to be at the event, but weather grounded his flight in Minneapolis. Doug was Ventura's campaign manager getting ready for the gov run at the time. I still have a 'Jesse Wants You to join the Reform Party' political poster.

People Dr. Lenny's age are not supposed to just pass out and die, but i guess if it's your time to go, you save your family tons in medical costs by going that way. My condolensces to friends and family - political reformers have lost a good friend.
