2008 Presidential Candidate Matching Quiz
I did expect to get slightly higher results for Mike Gravel, but no shock that Tankredo was last on the list. But, as suspected, I had a feeling Bill Richardson might be my man, but the money talks, and I'm most concerned with Obama, Edwards and Clinton. Gawd I hate elections. Money over substance. *grumble grumble grumble* In any event, this is not going to decide my vote. I'll make my decision on election day. As I've said to just about everyone I know, I want to believe in Barrack Obama. And, to a man (and woman), everyone I know has agreed with me. Hope is a dangerous thing. But I'm going with it for now.
So, the weather in California has evidently been bad. I hadn't noticed. I was without power on Friday from about 9 in the morning until 10 at night. I wasn't home for most of it. I was at work. Got home, found the power was out, and decided that since I couldn't use the stove, oven or microwave, that dinner would be done at some place that didn't require me to use fire to eat. So I went to Wing Stop after playing FNM Magic. Not much different than the average Friday.
We had two full teams of seven for Frisbee in Fremont on Saturday. In the rain and thunder and lightning. Booyah!
The new American Gladiators is a lesson for TV Executives everywhere. It IS possible to take a concept with a high degree of awesome involved and make it supremely bad by allowing television executives to be in charge of it. You chuckleheads at NBC: watch the tapes of the old show. Stop editing the events. Stick to one camera angle. Cut the ridiculous WWF trash-talking crap. Get rid of Hulk and Layla and bring back Adams and Czonka. And, for chrissake, DO NOT START INTERVIEWING THE WINNER BEFORE THE OTHER CONTESTANT FINISHES! Seriously guys, what the heck? This is a game show, not reality TV. Get your heads out of your rear-ends and give us something worth watching! Either that or negotiate with the writers. I don't care which. Get it done.
I'm no longer a fic writer. I have 300 words down. I know my middle and my end. It's that part in-between that's the problem. Anyone care to donate their brain to me for a teeny spell? I only need it for about 3 days. I'll give it back. I promise.
Also, for those of you from New England, anyone have time to go pound on the door of Putnam Investments in Providence and ask them where the heck my tuition money is? I'm not going to be able to pay my next credit card bill without it. Also, there's the little matter of books too in a few weeks. I'd really rather not have to dip into the savings. That's the opposite of good.
Anyone have some free money lying around anywhere? Anyone? No? Bugger.
Well, if I had free money, or free time, I could maybe do this.
