Horrible Dreams

How many people think that this election is not in the process of being stolen? Well, it is. Already we're seeing early voting is being manipulated.

So this guy in Virginia, Calvin Thomas , goes into the voting booth to cast his vote for Sen. Obama. Guess what happened: the electronic voting machine cast his vote for McCain!!! Well, he immediately went out to the poll worker and she says, "Oh, it's been doing that. Just hit it again." So, after hitting it again, it still registers his vote for McCain. And again. Finally, after "several attempts," the machine lit up for Obama. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS!!!! And then,do you know what happened? His daughter went into a different booth to vote. If you can't guess what happened, read the previous scenario and replace 'he' with 'she.' What the hell?!?!? And if it's 'been doing that,' as the poll worker said, why aren't any McCain supporters complaining of this very same thing? Pardon my French, but this is totally fucked. Totally totally totally totally fucked.

So now let's talk about those miraculous voting machines, introduced when (wait for it....) Bush was running for office. Diebold.

'But we aren't using Diebold machines this time,' you say? No, we aren't. We're using Premiere, because Diebold was too controversial. Newsflash: Diebold changed its name to Premiere after receiving tons of negative publicity from the last election! It IS Diebold!!

And do you know who the Chairman of the board for Diebold is? "Wally" O'Dell, a major contributor to the Republican party and frequent guest to the Crawford Ranch. He's also the guy that wrote a memo to Bush, stating his desire "to help Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the President." In reference to W. Bush, duh.

Am I the only one here that's peeing my pants? This has got to be in Revelations somewhere!

Deep breaths. In....out.....in......out......

Theories of Palin

So I was wrong: Palin wasn't dropped from the Republican ticket after three weeks. Who'd thought she would have made it this long? Not me. I thought for sure after Troopergate, husband wanting to secede from the Union, pregnant daughters while preaching family values, Bridge to Nowhere , appointing unqualified high school classmates to government positions, her relations with Reverend Kalnin, etc. I think the RNC took into consideration that it is good to cater to the lowest common denominator. I forgot that. Or, I didn't think that we were that low.


And why would we think that Palin has the ability, after naming her kids Track, Trig, Bristol, Piper, and Willow, to make good (or even rational) decisions. I have a theory: Sarah is trying to create a family of X-Men Superheroes!! Track, with his amazing speed! Trig can compute complex mathematical equations at the speed of light! Bristol- anything she touches turns to pharmaceuticals! Piper, the ultra-sonic screamer! And Willow, who can grow really long wispy green hair! Who needs an army?! Just send the P-Men to Iran and watch the niqads fly! No more Nuclear Arms Race! No more scary Russians! No wonder John McCain picked Sarah Palin as VP - he'd be an idiot not to! This also explains why she couldn't have been vetted, what with the need for secret identities and all. How could we not have seen it?



(Note to Biden: Guess what? If you run on a platform of 'family values,' THE FAMILY IS NOT OFF LIMITS!!)

First of many thoughts

So why can't I blog?

First of all, I'm not the most computer savvy person you met. The idea of finding this website again so that I may even make a second post is already making me sweat. Not to mention my computer's limitations itself - it needs a doctor, but my fear is that this guy will be diagnosed with a terminal illness. "I'm sorry, but the news is not good. I give him six months, maybe seven, considering his age and resilience." Or worse, the doctors will have to kill it entirely, wipe his memory clean, and give me back an empty shell: a vegetable to rebuild. That may be a necessary side effect, but do I really want to spend months refilling my music library. And can I even find my Charlotte Rae CD again?



Secondly, do I really have the tenacity to upkeep this responsibility? I have tens, nay hundreds, of projects begun and unfinished. I know my weaknesses: commitment is right up there with money management. And accessorizing.

And time. While I am not the busiest person I know, I am active, and on a flex schedule, so my days vary. And I am a person of structure. Well, ideally. And, however vain it might be, my primary goal is to build myself physically, not rant. I do that without blogging, anyway. I want to look more like John Cena
than John McCain (I can't bring myself to hunt down photos of that asshole.)
For those of surfing the web for cruising purposes, I actually don't look like either. I'm much hotter.

BUT, I do like to write - that's a big plus. And I am rather witty, if I do say so myself. And just full of joie de vivre.

I live in New York - Queens. I work as a supervisor for a major tools/hardware store. I won't say the name of the store, but it sounds like Pome Lepot. It's not my career, just a job. Pays the bills, whatever.

When I'm not working, I am obsessed with music and plays. (Do see 'Celebrity Autobiography' on 72nd Street. Do see 'Spring Awakening' before it closes January 18.) I also read a lot - currently reading "Lamb" by Christopher Moore and "A Lion Among Men" by Gregory Maguire.

Turn ons: Creativity, unconventionality, random acts suddenly displaying meaning (the movies "Babel" and "Magnolia" exemplify this. Or meeting someone seemingly arbitrarily but ends up having a profound effect.) Saulo Pineyro, Ann Beaver-Witting, Molly McNett, Don Regal, Ann Jennings, Caryn Brieschke, Steve Rose, and all the other people I haven't seen in eons, but are still my dear friends. Dogs.

Turn offs: Spitting in public, bad manners, organized religion, animal abuse, famine (ewwww!). Bushes. Men that whoop and belittle women in the street (has anyone ever gotten lucky from that behavior?) Gay men never act that way in public, so straight guys - follow the lead. You already took shaved heads, tattoos, metrosexuality and piercings from us. Why not take decentness?

Anyone whp reads this, thanx! Anyone who doesn't, go to hell.
