Vote
So...for all of you who happen to be registered to vote in Davidson County, TN...I implore you to consider voting January 22 or early (starting Friday January 2).
There are a large number of reasons why this proposal is discriminatory at best. I am imploring you to consider it over and do all you can to vote the best way you see fit for all ( Read more... ) -
I know...
It has been give or take forever. I plan to do better about that moving forward. So for an initial update on life...I will defer to my next post. For now I will simply say I am alive and well, so is Tyler, so is the condo (okay the condo isn't alive). We made it thru 2008 and look forward to a better 2009. Went to a wedding over the weekend ( Read more... ) -
Reflections...
On the election....
So it looks like my predictions came true (364-174). Electoral college speaking...that would be a blowout. The last time a Democrat did that (without the aid of a 3rd Party candidate getting at least 10% of the vote was in 1964 (LBJ V Barry Goldwater). There are a large number of reasons for this, and I would be a fool to ( Read more... ) -
Projections

Election '08
I know I haven't updated in awhile. But this was too funny. From http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-kelly/governor-palin-has-what-i_b_103702.html and their reasons why Palin makes a good VP nominee...
She's the Governor of Alaska.
(A state that's 22 years younger than John McCain. Shows he can adjust to new things.)
SMACK!

This LJ post brought to you by Bush Int'l Airport
I have somehow cracked into some free airwaves from Bush Int'l Airport in Houston, TX and at this juncture...I want to say...I am ready to go home. I have been in this airport since 3:30PM. It is now 9PM. Flight was supposed to leave at 7PM. It's all good I suppose but...we need a better way to spend our time in airports ( Read more... ) -
Your response would be helpful...
We think upon moving in we got a shitty dishwasher (though it is brand new). It takes a little over TWO HOURS to completely wash.dry dishes. This is our 3rd or 4th time using it since moving in because I just cannot justify that kind of waste of energy/water when it is typically significantly quicker/less wasteful to wash by hand and air-dry ( Read more... ) -
We're gonna drive the racecar
So...The last few days have been quite nice. I have heard Kenny Rogers, Josh Turner, and...Faith Hill LIVE from LP Field (well I was on the Shelby St Bridge but no less). I gotta tell you...hearing Kenny Rogers sing Lucille, Lady, Islands in the Stream, and The Gambler live and on another night Faith Hill with This Kiss and another night Josh ( Read more... ) -
GOOOO-BAMA
And...congrats to our Illinois Senator for his (presumptive) nomination (and might I add Presidency? I think so). I wanted to write about it last night but wanted to sleep on it and see what my feelings were. You could tell last night I was a little fired up about Clinton (if you read that one). But...I digress. I suppose what I want to say is ( Read more... )
