A new Obama Watch is starting on Oahu: In June, President Obama's high school class (Punahou, '79) is having their 30 year reunion. An invitation has been sent to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., but no RSVP yet. Organizers aren't getting their hopes up. So in his place, they'll party on with "Cardboard Barry," the life-size cardboard cutout of Obama that appeared at local campaign fundraisers.
Can't blame Obama for not being able to squeeze it in. Here's the schedule of events: "The reunion runs from June 10 through June 14, beginning with a large gathering at Punahou of all classes celebrating reunions ranging from five years to 50. Golf tournaments will be held around the island for the various classes on June 11. Then the Punahou Class of '79 will have its own cocktail party at the O'ahu Country Club on June 12. Another large gathering of the various classes will occur again at Punahou for a lu'au on June 13. And then the Class of '79 will gather alone on June 14 for a family picnic at a classmate's home in Lanikai."
This begs the question, how much is too much time at a reunion?
