The Dallas County Young Republicans had their Christmas party last night at the Dralion. The hors d'oeuvres was delicious. Music, ok. The space was a little cram for the group our size.

Found a great reminder in I Thessalonians 1:3: work produced by faith, labor prompted by love and endurance inspired by hope.

The Metrocrest Republican club had their Christmas party today. Again, as I have been doing, was able to practice what I gleamed from Hugh Hewitt's book In, But Not Of. Basically in consersation with new people, try to detect what is the person's area of expertise, then within tact, highjack the conversation and interrogate the person so you can harvest his knowledge. The person would be more than happy to share his learnings and experiences for which you won't have to spend time doing what he already did.
