Copied&pasted from my website. Oh, go there and check out the new comic: http://www.geocities.com/mts1172000/ (If you haven't seen the comic before, head over to http://www.geocities.com/mts1172000/comic4.html and get caught up! ^_^)

Okay, I'm about to crash, but just updated the comic with...well, with one I made several days ago and just now managed to get up... ^_^; I'd make another right now, but I was going to go to bed an hour ago. My head is swiming...like super hyper. Honestly, why am I thinking of running for political office? I mean, that's the most retarded thing. And what's more, I'd tell people straight how I plan to behave and act, and I'd tell them how I might not always vote like they'd want if it would violate my conscience and stuff like that...the truth, basically. Who would ever vote for me? What office shall I run for? I'm thinking Texas House, then US House in the next election. That'd put me at just a month past turning 26, then again, just a month past 28. It's by far the stupidiest, most unrealistic "not gonna happen" think I've ever thought in my life! Well...maybe not the MOST, but some of the weirder ones have actually happened. ^_^
To be honest, I'm not really sure why the thought is in my head, maybe cause of talking with poeple about our current stuff and all the stuff going on...and I'm actually starting to form views. But not like my past, "They're all stupid, lacking wisdom..." and "Well, this issue is really too complicated for me with my underdeveloped intellect and non-existent wisdom." Now I'm starting to think of clear things I could stand for, how I'd stand on stuff like the environment, global warming, abortion, gun control, Iraq, and a host of other stuff. Yikes! Someone shoot me, please! :p Fine, if all you have is a camera, then shoot me with it, maybe the flash will knock some sense back into me. ^_^
Maybe it's partly due, also, to the fact that I have no idea what I'm going to do after I get my degree in May, and maybe also partly due to the fact that I beleive this nation is in need of...something. Some change. Besides which, if ever there was a political climate for us to go back to having more than two serious political parties, now is that time. And if ever there was a time where people of conscience and wisdom were needed to run things, now is THAT time too. But I have no money to finance anything...guess I can get started working on that too. Gee, if only I had some useful marketable asset. Making sprite comics for free isn't really much of an asset. ^_^; Well...I'll figure it all out eventually. At the very least, I'd be a "common Joe" candidate, not a politician, not a lawyer, but an actual scientist (degreed, even!), and possibly also a philosopher. And again, I'd have one thing going for me, even if I still don't have much wisdom and have no leadership or administrative or political or public service experience, I DO have character, conscience, courage, and I will be straight and honest with people, tell them the truth, and do the darndest to do what I say I will do. And I won't take bribes. ^_^ I'll be like that Senator guy that lived in a little shack somewhere and gave all his money to needy people. ^_^ That was in a time where people actually practiced what they preached. Gee, I wonder what dirt and mud would be dug up on me to smear me if I ran...eh, whatever, I'm gonna crash. ^_^
Night everyone! ^_^
