Local elections (or, am I ALWAYS this out-of-it? I hope not)

1. Apparently a guy I've known for a long time has been elected to the City Council of a nearby town. Go, Dennis :D I didn't even know he was running for office until I saw a letter to the editor endorsing him a few days ago

Who are the All-American Rejects and why do they get to appear on Leno?

*gasp* They are awesome! I *heart* their stuff! I saw them live! *flail* :D :D

[annearchy]

Well, I just saw them too! I liked them. Liked that song anyway. But, er, who are they?? :D

[angel423]

They are a "pop-punk" band that has been around for a few years. Their first hit was called "Swing, swing" and it was pretty catchy, although I prefer their newest album. Beyond their songs that are so upbeat and catchy that I always end up wiggling or dancing around, I don't know much about them except that the lead singers' eyes make me weak in the knees ;)

If you want some more of their songs to listen to, I could upload them to YSI for ya :)

That's very nice of you :) Unfortunately, right now I don't have any way to listen to them OR to get them off my computer and onto my MP3 player. Damn technological backwardness :(

We had a relative of ours run for local office recently. Actually, it was quite hilarious. We got home from shopping and there was a message on our answering machine asking us to go vote and write him in. hehehe

[annearchy]

I would have written someone in, had I known anyone else who wanted the job :)) I just can't believe that my county supervisor has basically been invisible the past 2 years.

Come to think of it, I don't know who ours is, either...

But, see, I KNEW who she was 2 years ago, because I voted for her!! And since then she's apparently done NOTHING that would make me remember her on election day. How wrong is that??
