I'll volunteer for that program. There are all sorts of things I'd

We had a superb dinner last night in the Castro, paid for by Gavin
Newsom's $400 bribery debit card from a state facing a $24e9 deficit.

They even have a "Listen to the story" button for Breitbart audience who never learned to read. That's convenient.

Technology Update: A lot of people have tiny wireless phones and want to hear stuff while they are driving or jogging or whatever. No, really!
