Lou in the Whitehouse.
Our version of the Whitehouse is plenty white, but it’s not a house. Instead, it’s this big hunk of rock you climb and ski. I got up there the other day with Penn Newhard of Backbone Media. Always good to get out with Penn and talk about family life, along with trying to scam airline tickets to his latest European luxury press junket espresso fest. He’s used being hit up like that, and somehow always turns the focus back to climbing and making turns. Oh well, espresso is over rated!

President Newhard is climbing in the polls, and has a 99% approval rating of today's snow conditions.
Chief of Staff, Lou experiences what he called 'psychedelic' snow conditions. This caused us to research his background in the 1960's, and we noted many suspicious activities that might obviate his White House security clearance. Good he knows the secret tunnel route. Seriously, while skiing in the rake light, all these chunks of snow were bouncing up from shadow to light, creating a mesmerizing effect that was near to an alternate reality.
