Go me! My parents, sister, and I went to vote right after work. My brother, lazy bum that he is, will not be voting -- again. If you're in Eastern Standard Time, you've still got 2 hours left to vote!
I'm gonna pop some The West Wing into the DVD player tonight. I'm thinking "Game On" and then "Election Night". Oh Sorkin. ♥
SAM: It's not a party.
CJ: It IS a party.
SAM: Yeah, but we won. We don't have to pander.
TOBY: Please don't say that.
CJ: On your birthday, don't we pander to you?
SAM: Not as much as I'd like.
TOBY: I'm not kidding.
CJ: What are you babbling about?
TOBY: We haven't won anything yet.
CJ: The speech is done.
TOBY: TWO speeches are done.
CJ: What's the second?
TOBY: I've got a speech if he wins, I've got a speech if he doesn't.
SAM: You wrote a concession?
TOBY: Of course I wrote a concession! You want to tempt the wrath of the whatever from high atop the thing?
SAM: No.
TOBY: Then go outside, turn around three times and spit! What the hell's the matter with you?
SAM: It's like 25 degrees outside.
TOBY: Go.
JOSH: Hello.
CJ: [in foreign accent] Oh, Mr. Lyman. I see your picture in the magazine. Tell me, if I swallow my ballot, does it still...?
JOSH: A little election day humor-- that's great.
SAM: He wrote a concession speech.
JOSH: Of course he wrote a concession speech. Why wouldn't he? What POSSIBLE reason would he have for not writing a concession speech?
SAM: The wrath from high atop the thing.
TOBY: He upped and said we were gonna...
JOSH: No! You got to go outside, turn around three times and curse.
TOBY: Spit.
JOSH: Spit and curse.
TOBY: Do everything. Go!
JOSH: Go!
TOBY: Go!
JOSH: Go!
TOBY: Go!
Sam gets up and leaves the room.
JOSH: These things have a half-life.
Of course, I don't think anyone in Harper or Dion's office is really on pins and needles about the outcome of this election. Maybe for a few ridings here and there, sure. But we're gonna have the same Conservative minority gov't we had before.
