Election Day
Voted. Walking up to my local Fire hall, towards the voting booths, always has such an empowered feeling. Happily, I just missed the rush. Walking out, the lot and street were busy with cars arriving and people walking …

How I voted for Prez
I had to find an alternative, since I think that this 2 party system absolutely sucks. So I voted for Ralph Nader. It took me a minute to find him since he was beyond the bottom of the rows. It's pretty sad when his "Po…

Voted (Barack +1)
The line wasn't bad at all. Our old school mechanical voting booths are actually pretty awesome. The only bad part of the experience was that I almost missed the referendum above the political offices. Not sure what I'l…

drunken ramblings
So... a month or so ago I went to dinner with a bunch of people... met the woman sitting next to me for the first time, and spent most of the night commiserating over the fact that 'men suck'- she having recently been t…

When Obama wins . . .
. . . you can thank/blame the Steelers, for beating the Washington Redskins. . . . Or McCain, for speaking at halftime with EMPTY SEATS and DISINTERESTED PEOPLE behind him. Hey John--this race is televised! Did you see …

Worst Work Day Ever
Well, not ever, but close. I worked so hard all day from the moment I got there at 10:30 till I left 5 minutes ago at 11:30 - a fun 13 hours laters. My brain actually hurts. To make it even more fun I have to be at work…

How important is it?
Once again, I'm wiping away tears over an Obama-related video, this time one directed at my dad, a long-time union member in Pennsylvania and great-grandson of the first U.S. Secretary of Labor http://www.blossburg.org/…

Buisness Idea
So today on my way to work I caught a bus around 6am and as I was going down Delaware I saw Spot was open and there where people inside. I thought it must be nice to go there and eat and maybe drink before work. Then I …

The Problems of election Day
First of all I don't think that anyone in NYS should vote for anyone local. That is right I think every single local person should get 0 votes and then no one wins. Here is the reason why they all go Negative. All the a…

ELECTION WOEs
I find with the closer tomorrow gets, the more apprehensive I become. I know that Obama is ahead in the polls but, 8 years ago, so was Gore (I believe it was by 8 points pre-election day) - we all know how that turned o…

Weekend wrap-up
We had so few trick or treaters this year. I only went through one large bag of candy. The kids who awestruck by our dogs, make me laugh. We always have at least one group that really want to see the dogs. I put a gate …

Time Warner
Received a friendly letter in the mail from Time Warner that they would be increasing our internet rate if we did not combine our internet with their phone service or cable. I don't want cable and I already have a phone…

Happy Monday
Well, it had better be a good Monday considering how Sunday went. The Bills lost and my FFL team is less than a point away from taking a 5th loss. Not the worst day in the world, I know, but I sat there for hours watchi…

NaNoWriMo update 1
Last night I sat down and finally started in on NaNoWriMo. I'm revisiting an old novel, which is contrary to NaNo's rules, but I need a new plot-hole-full hastily-written shitty first draft to add to my considerable por…

PDAnet for iphone tethering
Having a jailbroken iphone is great for a lot of reasons. The best of all which is you can tether. All the tethering options until I tried this point sucked. None of them were as good as any of the windows mobile soluti…

Time Change Decisions
I woke up an hour early effortlessly thanks to the time change. Could be a good time to change my work schedule by one hour. Then again, I might just hate it after a week. Maybe I will just go in early today and see.
