feel free to ignore me

Yes, dear.

Talk to you next week...

(Yep, all those years; you pick up a thing or two.)

Kinda' hard to disagree with your conclusions in your "ifpoams" post though.

But I bet it felt good to get that off of your chest, didn't it though?

I threw away all my votes on the Green candidates and the Independance Party here, and contributed to the razor thin Republican victories. I don't feel bad about wasting votes, I'd feel worse about not voting for the candidates who stood up for peace and renewable energy and the environment.

hmm, i dunno about that. the candidate statemens for some of the local guys were enough to curl your teeth. pro-life, pro-gun, pro-death penalty, oh my god. had i voted, i'd have felt the need to vote against them in a way that had a chance of keeping them out of office.

kd - never, ever apologize for something you've posted. unless, of course, you were mean and hateful. this wasn't mean and hateful. it's just venting.

being a woman without a country is really frustrating as i can't vote.

hang in there girl.

Deborah, can't you vote absentee? Granted, it might take a little effort to provide evidence you are who you say you are...

well, Deborah, i felt a little funny about it since, in essence, i called the entire human race stupid, that i should, you know, offer a little disclaimer :)

it really was good venting though.

people are stupid, kd, being one i can say that :)

probably, Linkmeister, at least in federal stuff. but it's not just getting it set up. it's being able to make informed decisions that's difficult. i'd have to get 99% of my info from the Internet. and well, it's the Internet. for local stuff - what (where?) would i pick? Washington State is closest but since i don't live there Hawaii would make as much sense ;)

it's alright, dear. we all go a bit macabre when we're ill too.
