Video: Run Steve Run...
Here’s the latest video to come from the Steve Sojka camp. This video is entitled Run Steve Run and was produced by Sojka Supporter Don “Fluffy” Norris. Don enjoys the nickname “Fluffy” because he feels it captures the essence of his gentle demeanor and delicate stature. I really enjoy Don’s work and find his video effects and quick cuts really cool.
Enjoy…

Bob Huber’s New Vide...
Another fantastic video from Team Huber. I spoke to Chris Huber, Bob’s son, this last Sunday at the Burgers for Bob event. He enjoys videography and takes pride in the work he’s doing for his father. I’m a fan of his work and think he has a lot of talent.

City Council Video Highlig...
The August 30th City Council meeting was eventful, to say the very least. Here are some much talked about event highlights: Steve Frank and Bob Huber discussing E-Verify.

Video: Burgers with Bob...
I had a great time at the Burgers with Bob event at Rancho Park in Simi Valley on Erringer and Royal this afternoon. This was definitely one of those events that makes you really open your eyes and ears and evaluate the issues and consider solutions. It’s one thing to debate the issues on a blog. It’s another entirely to discuss these issues in person with people who are affected and see...
