Just regular kinds of stuff that happened (that doesn’t fit in other categories).

Almost half the people like the other guy’s position better!

So it looks like the election’s over. No final counts yet but it’s close 51%/48% (and I’m assuming it’ll be Bush) but either way I hope the winner doesn’t get too smug, it was pretty close. My point here is that really close to half of the country voted for the other guy. That means half of the people care about the other issues enough to go vote. I hope the that the winner keeps this in mind when making decisions — that many people aren’t thrilled with their way of doing things…

Why not vote?

Posted on October 31, 2004 | Leave a comment

So here’s a site for you to find out about some issues. Some issues appear on the screen and click on one if it interests you. It gives you several facts (of each candidate) and you pick the one you like best and it tells you which candidate it goes with.

This is very cool, I assume the information is accurate but you never know. There’s even an educational version that is modified to make if more appropriate for kids (or your low-IQ friends).

Gay Marriage (it’s none of your business)

Posted on October 24, 2004 | 1 comment

Who likes people in their business? No one. So why are we messing with this on the ballot? (There is no good answer to this, I’m not really looking for a reply.)

I thinking I’ve finally resigned myself to this being on the ballot and I’m getting excited about it. It’s opening up all sorts of future possibilities for votes that also impede on people’s civil rights:

  • Stupid people are not allowed to have children.
  • You need a permit to use the drive-thru (to prove you’re able to eat while you drive).
  • A $200 fine for turning / lane changes with out your blinker on for at least three seconds before executing.
  • No charge cards / credit unless you can prove that you actually have the ability to pay them off someday.
  • A fine for every time someone makes up an answer instead of saying “I don’t know”.
  • You must vote (or at least show up to click “abstain”) in every election (elections will be voided with less then 80% participation).

    Funny Stuff…

    Posted on October 23, 2004 | Leave a comment

    Found a great site (DontForward.com) with a few humorous lists:

  • How men & women think differently.
  • Things you’d like to say at work (but can’t).
  • If Bush was running against Jesus.
  • Relationship Jokes.
  • The gender of everyday objects.
    At least I thought they were funny.

    Smoke Alert

    Posted on October 9, 2004 | Leave a comment

    It wasn’t that I burned the bacon to a total crisp this morning that I find distressing. It’s the fact that none of the four nearby smoke detectors went off. They’re not smart enough to know that I was cooking, are they?
