Post by: Ka Honu on March 11, 2017, 12:45:58 AM: My daughter and son-in-law live less than 3 miles from Kevin Barry's and have access to reserved parking about three blocks from there but have decided to skip it this year since she's 7½ months pregnant. I understand her reluctance to fight the traffic and the crowd but wonder why he's copping out.

299,997 and falling (but no worries - there will probably be 750 replacements for the 3 abstainers).
