www.hillaryclinton.com -> video chats, guest blogs and more, oh my?!


PS / My vote is for David Palmer...

Katrina Cabin Project

Saw a report on this amazing project last night on Dan Rather Reports (which is quickly becoming the only news broadcast I watch).

Kudos to Marianne Cusato, the architect and visionary behind this concept.
