I am pleased to report that there was no campaign literature in today's mail. Of course, there was no mail today, so if there had been any such literature, I would have been really confused.

I did, however, receive one call, asking me to volunteer for my party nominee's campaign. Of course, once I told to friendly voice on the other end of the call that I was a member of the media, she immediately understood and reminded me to vote on Nov. 4. I told her I'd already taken care of that last week, she thanked me and we hung up. End of weekend politics for me.

Of course, rumor has it that my mother ran into Matt Damon (I hope she didn't hurt him) at our local campaign headquarters -- and she has the pictures to prove it. More details to come.
