Editorial note: This week is going to be busy for me. I don’t know how much or how often I’ll be posting but check in.
Note about the picture: It’s me and actor Kal Penn. Penn played Kumar in Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle, and is now starring on the popular medical drama House, M.D. I organized an Obama for America event for Kal. We ended up filling a room full of about 200 students.
And yes, I know, I look sooo dorky in that pic.
