May I join you all following the unfortunate outcome of our election.  Yes, I did my part voting, and even though our state of Illinois, democrats won, the total outcome was not cool.  It just shows how important it is to get out and speak your voice, and keep our freedom and democracy.

our rights and the rights of other nations. Let's hope.

this is a sad day for all of us except people like my bosses who are
