Tonight's RPOD comes as Reid's dad is grinning ear to ear about the performance of a certain politician in a certain nationally televised debate. Even Reid, in this photo, seems to be gloating about his candidate's performance. I'm also all a-twitter because we finally got to speak with Reid's mom today. She gave the RPOD's a glowing review, and I'm happy to hear that me and this little ham can continue to impress her day after day. She is safe and sound in her far-flung destination, and she may even be able to move her return-date closer by a day. All good news.
