Monday, I am going to hear Joe Biden address my kid and many others

[PCIntern]

at the graduation ceremonies at the University of Pennsylvania. I am so very proud of my child's significant academic and extracurricular accomplishments, (none of which I have ever listed here for a variety of personal reasons), and of the University, of which I am also an alum, for choosing him to be the Commencement Speaker. A number of his family, including his granddaughter now enrolled, have matriculated and graduated from Penn.

However, it must be noted that Laura Bush the Elder will be addressing the Nursing Graduates at the Kimmel Center.

One out of two isn't bad...

2. First off, congrats to the offspring

Penn. An Ivy League school. He or she must have something on the ball, just as you do. And a chance to hear VP Biden speak. That is very thrilling. Have a great time and maybe you can report back after it's all said and done. Or not, it's up to you of course.
