Cold comfort, smonster, we were cheering for LSU at my house, but the guys felt better when I told them about the predictive nature of the game.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I am philosophically opposed to legislation-by-initiative, the way it is practiced in California. It's an abdication of the legislature's responsibility, passing the burden of investigation and research to the general public.
It completely is. And, yet, it's apparently what enough Californians want that we're stuck with it. I hate it, it's stupid and it's really bad for the state and the population. Especially because everything is poorly drafted and nearly impossible to parse every nuance of outcome. I'm jaded so I expect that is what the authors intended. Infuriates me. I elect people to be the government and understand the laws they are passing or changing. Clearly the entire population is not informed enough and I don't think could be without making it their full-time job which, hey, it is for elected officials. And I'm too annoyed by this to make sure more of those sentences are grammatically correct.
Also, why the fuck don't local candidates, you know, put their information up somewhere? I don't know who you are, small race person! I am not going to vote for you based on your yard sign and poster sized attack ads! What are your positions, man?
I sent my choices to Mom and she wondered how I had chosen in a local BoE race. Sadly, I had to tell her that there was the incumbent and a challenger and because neither had a statement or any presence I could find any damn place on the web, I picked the challenger. The incumbent really should have known better. especially because the challenger requested, filled out and had filed every single candidacy document a week before the incumbent even requested them. So it wasn't like he should be surprised there was a challenger. Truly neither deserved my vote but someone is getting that position. Seriously, tell me something about yourself!
Ugh, it needs to be Wednesday and it needs to be definitively decided, not up for recount or the Supreme Court.
In weird news, this week is the second Wait Wait within like a month with someone I sort of know mentioned.
Am also getting anxious about tomorrow.
In case this helps, I made this wallpaper for my phone yesterday. All of you are welcome to it.
love it!
ita ! I'm going to do something that as an atheist I never do. I'm going to pray for you. Cause it will be every bit as effective as the fucking lavender oil.
Ugh, sunset at 4:30pm is NOT OKAY.

Yeah, the Southern Hemisphere bastards have the orb!
ION, my boss is going to do GOTV stuff for Obama in WI tomorrow. So I don't think I'll get much done at work....
I've made my media plan for tomorrow.
No live tv, no online newpapers, no radio until 6pm. I will read Buffistas and FB (FB may get the boot). After 6pm I'll watch the news until a winner is declared.
I just got what I thought was a Robo Call for the Republicans. Turns out it was a real person. I told her I was voting Democrat and she said the important thing was to vote.
I think she listed John MacGovern who I feel bad for - he's the guy the GOP suckered into running against Bernie Sanders. At least I assume he was either suckered or lost bet because he has no chance of winning.
