When Leo Laporte won my mock election for President of the Internet, my first thought was, “If Leo were the President of the Internet, who would be in his cabinet?” Thus, I gave the iPres a call and within 30 minutes we had fleshed out the full mythical cabinet. Now it’s time to announce his selections.

For the next four days Thursday thru Sunday, I will be going camping at Big Basin State Park Ca.
Big Basin Redwoods State Park is California's oldest State Park, established in 1902.
Home to the largest continuous stand of ancient coast redwoods south of
San Francisco, the park consists of over 18,000 acres of old growth and
recovering redwood forest, with mixed conifer, oaks, chaparral, and
riparian habitats. Elevations in the park vary from sea level to over
2,000 feet. The climate ranges from foggy and damp near the ocean to
sunny, warm ridge tops.
