Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

exercising a left (er, I mean a right)

I'll start with "RATS!" as stated by Charlie Brown so many times.  The machines this district use are the infamous "susceptible" electronic ones.  That either means there will be landslides or challenges everywhere.
 
There was a hopeful candidate out at the steps greeting people as they entered, hoping for one last bite at votes.

what tomorrow will bring

"Oh, Lord it's hard to be humble, when you're perfect in every way", in an acceptance speech by an elected official.  My rival ran a mudslinging, diabolical campaign slandering me, but I concede to him victory in this election.
 
Crap!  Politically, bullying works.  That's just not right.  I guess the "nerds" in school who were bullied do it in their adult years to each other as politicians.
 
The results will look like morse code or binary (for the most part)
RRDDRDRDDR ... with an L, G, and W (write in) mixed in for color.

Taco Yell

Fast food, well ... food anyway. The wait was much akin to an amusement park. MR and I waited ten minutes for food. What were they doing? Taco Bell, while the food was okay, the wait was terrible. They had a long ling in drive up, then when I was looking, they had a guy in the kitchen prep area pushing a broom. I think that man could have been busy stuffing tacos for orders.

The kicker was the sprinkler system being set off by a flamer. He smelt of cigarettes, incence, and perfume. Elderberries would have been better.

Guess who's coming to dinner

Hmm, where could they be? I saw food, er, I mean birds a moment ago.

They aren't over there, behind me. Hmmm.

Oh, there he is! I'll have a steak and one whole chicken. Thanks.

While the shots were taken through a glass door -- hence the imperfection, it was a nice chance to catch this one waiting and watching. There are at least four of these locally (within a half to whole mile) of here, with lots of hunting grounds. Feeding birds doesn't discourage this one's arrival. Within seconds of its departure, squirrels resumed eating.

heads up

Mayor:

Peters will run for mayor

Allen County Commissioner Nelson Peters will run for mayor in 2007.
Peters, a Republican, said today he will formally announce his decision Nov. 16 at a luncheon at the Greater Fort Wayne Chamber of Commerce.
Peters formed a committee to explore the possibility of his mayoral candidacy Oct. 12, when he said he wanted to see what financial and volunteer support he could gather.
Since forming the committee, he said he has gained a greater understanding of the issues affecting Fort Wayne government to help him put together a platform.
“We’ve gotten a number of people interested and excited,” Peters said.
Local architect Matt Kelty, also a Republican, announced Oct. 9 his intent to run for mayor. With two Republican candidates, the nominee will be decided in the primary election.
.....
So, he formed a committe, spending money, to evaluate whether he should run. He shouldn't if he has to spend money on making that decision.

Gov Daniels

"I can't wait to get started," he said.

I agreed. I can't wait for him to get started on something either. Do something! If he impliments full-day kindergarten, that would be nice, but from what I can see and read ... he talks about things, plans things, writes things, but when it comes to doing -- well, I don't see it.

I also assume that he doesn't care for what Indiana might want or need, for in more of the larger projects he has done, a whirlwind of opposition has surrounded his ideas and decisions. I could bitch about Mitch, but instead I'll do what he does ... wait. It's not like I have a choice, he wasn't up for election and I didn't vote for him in the last election.

Cindy Sheehan profile

Alright, so her son died serving our country, done. She even got a chance to talk with President Bush, a rarity for sure. Now, she's championing the anti-war cause? She's a leader ... huh, I don't think so. "Somebody must have made her do it." + The real crooks here are those who found her and are using her as a mascot. She really needs therapy, not because of her perpetual pestering of the government, but rather that she probably never got a chance to :move on" after a period of mourning. Those looking for a face to go with their position chose her. Looking at it from an outsider's POV, I see that she's ineffective, irrational, had her bite of the apple and should phase out of that.

Petitioning and calling for a change, is great. I salute protesting, though this group has some problems. I think littering the White House lawn is wrong. While the call to get out of Iraq is growing stronger, I doubt that this group's numbers are increasing. They aren't quite the lunatic fringe, but aren't the sharpest tools either.

Regarding Cindy, well, I think this poor womoan should seek therapy, as she is still mourning and acting out in a desperate measure to escape the pain. I think once she accepts it, she might continue to work on getting out of Iraq, but in a different manner.

+Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Roger laments on Jessica playing patty-cake with Marvin Acme; "ppppplllleasssse"

irony in motion

Dan Baldwin, "Daniel" to some, has had a difficult year with driving insanely crashing into parked cars, cocaine (for which he was not charged) and now grand theft auto.  What's really funny, as pointed out by the Associated Press is that he starred in, "Car 54, Where Are You?"  How can you get funnier than that?
 
I believe he was found singing Lenard Skynard's ""Life's been good to me so far..."

Judge has simple plan

Custody is awarded to neither party, as both are stupid an incompetent. Sharing a 6-piece chicken nugget pack of brains, Federline and Britney file for sole custody of tragically doomed children unless judge orders arbitration between the two to find a suitable third party to raise their children.

It was once speculated that with some training, the couple might obtain a full "value meal", but recent events make this strongly unlikely. With Federline, a no-brainer punk, whose idiocy is matched only with his aversion to talent, seeking custody because his mama said so, Britney has other reasons. While being pregnant-chunky hasn't helped her, as well as dropping her child at least once, her attorney encourages her to seek sole custody for public relations sake. Reportedly knowing that she has a difficult time distinguishing between the children's crying, her crying and Federline's crying; her attorney has nonetheless sought sole custody for Spears.

Spears' attorney also wishes to quash Federline's attorney's use of, "Oops, I did it again" from any court document, citing the potential of associating it with her carelessness and general air-head apparent. He is also seeking to show Federline's inability to dress himself, pass any written exam, and his inability to pass drug screening. More to the point as being a poor "father (snicker) figure", he has no potential for employment, instead he would contentiously soak up the good yeild on Spears' fame and fortune. A "vroom, vroom" enthusaist, Federline plans to market his "nation de arte vrooms". After speaking with his English-speaking attorney, it was understood that Federline has plans for new "sophisticated" vehicles including cars, trucks and 'cycles'+ that all must go "vroom, vroom" (with the aid of a sound system).

Spears' has requested, much to the sickening of her attorney that Mattel pay her millions of dollars for falsely marketing that "cheap ho who been cheatin' and hatin' on her" in reference to Barbie (TM). She also wishes to receive "cash" for every time her doorbell rings, with the tones similar to one of her songs. As they sound much the same, her attorney could not narrow it down to a specific song. She has also requested that all children named Britney around the time of her Mickey Mouse fame and onward pay her royalties for using her name.

After some hard deliberation, he has ordered both Spears and Federline into the circus to perform various acts as prescribed by the ring master. After a federal review, it seems very likely that this will stand in court as a fair judgment. For the sake of the children, they have been given over to an Ohio couple that wishes to remain annonymous. The couple has ackowledged that they don't listen to Spears' music and was unaware that she or Fenderline were in the "talent" industry.

+ "cycles" was an agreed upon term after negotiating with Federline that "two-wheelie things -- fast ones", "hoggies", "big wheels", and "supra fastest vroom vrooms" were summarily dismissed by his attorney.
