I’m totally making these. I can’t get a yard sign, but I can put some pumpkins in my yard. I’ll post pictures. Please consider donating to my efforts in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk for the Cure

If ever there was a time when we needed a debate, it’s now. The very idea that McCain would use the financial crisis as an excuse is just ludicrous. Whatever’s going to happen with that is going to happen. He’s not going to sway things one way or the other. I’m starting to think there’s [...]
On the way in to work today, Mr. Geeky and I saw a pro Sarah Palin sign that inspired me to make some anti-Palin t-shirts. Check ‘em out. Please consider donating to my efforts in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk for the Cure
Not since my days as an almost economics major have I read so much about money and markets. And I still don’t really have a clue what’s going on. It’s not that I’m dumb, but I think there’s some smoke and mirrors going on. One lawmaker yesterday said that there should be provisions for limiting [...]
I’m headed out in about an hour to canvass our town on behalf of Obama. I don’t know all the talking points, but what I do know is that our country can’t take any more of an administration that puts its rich friends ahead of the average citizen, that thinks nothing of sending our young [...]
There are a few comments coming in on an older post of mine. I don’t know if I’d say the comments are interesting since the last few have been full of talking points from various parties. I have to say that I hate it when people use the “this isn’t what the founding fathers meant” [...]
So I jumped in and volunteered to make phone calls for the Obama Campaign. For three hours last night, I called people in order to get volunteers. I didn’t do too badly. I put my former telemarketing skills to work and signed up 8 volunteers. Considering I only actually talked to 22 people, that’s not [...]
I had every intention of watching McCain’s speech. I watched all the lead-up speeches, beginning around 8:30. Geeky Boy was watching with me. His first comment was, “Oh I see what this is all about: 9/11.” And that was when that Senator from Oklahoma was talking about the OK City bombing–something done to us by [...]
I decided I could not miss a historic moment like watching the first African-American presidential nominee give an acceptance speech. He said everything I’ve wanted Democrats to say for years. He hit some key issues head on that previous candidates have pussyfooted around–oil, abortion, gay marriage. He pointed out that Republicans have basically been trying [...]
I have been mostly lost in my own little world the last few months. Last election, I watched the Sunday shows, read blogs, read the paper, kept up with every little thing. I really, really wanted to get Bush out of office. But then I got burned. Like I got burned the time before. I [...]
