Awake And Readin'
I'm recovering from surgery ... again ... and I'm awake in the middle of the night. Again.
I'm not sure if it's the meds keeping me awake or the spasms I'm having in my bladder in spite of the meds. Either way, I can't sleep. And I've found some neat stuff to read and watch:
- An October 17th news story shows that, with the election about two weeks away, the Democratic candidate is ahead by as much as ten points in thirteen key swing states ... and is poised to take the White House.
Oh, wait... that story is from October 17th, 2004. I'd forgotten how it looked like a sure thing that Kerry was going to win. Just like it looks like a sure thing that Obama is gonna win this time. Hmmmmmm.... - Sarah Palin spoke in North Carolina and said that she always enjoyed the chance to speak in the "Pro-America" parts of the country. Joe Biden took offense at that, saying
“It's disappointing, and I hope it's a slip of the tongue and she doesn't mean it, but she said it, it was reported she said that she likes to visit – quote – 'pro American' parts of the country..."
I don't think it was a slip of the tongue. Governor Palin was probably thinking about San Francisco and Portland, for instance, in contrast to the small towns in America. - Rey has clips of Obama and McCain speaking at a charity dinner. Both of them delivered very funny monologues. Here's a clip of McCain's best stuff:
Rey has more, lots of laughs, go check it out.
It's fun to watch these two guys share big, belly-bustin' laughs together. And it reminds me how much I used to like Obama before I knew anything about him. I still think he probably will win, even though he's not the guy I'm voting for, so I guess I better find stuff to like about him again. After all, we're probably gonna have to live with him for four years! - A twelve year old girl wore a pro-Palin shirt to school and was branded a racist by some of her classmates. WTF?
- MCF has made one of my dreams come true: Finally I can fly and shoot lasers out of my butt.
- I have a new hero: The guy who ate the fifteen pound cheeseburger...
- The Democratic Party is the party of tolerance. That's why some Obama supporters threaten and beat up McCain supporters. (HT: Ace.)
- Rhodester got a lot of 'splainin' to do. Click right here and he'll explain dogs to you.

Yeah, after watching the jokes, I might still disagree with Obama on some issues, and I'm not voting for him, but I can't say I dislike him. I'm not going to be as upset as I was when Clinton won. As some of your other links demonstrate, sometimes it's the voters of a particular party that are more difficult than the candidates themselves.
Just use your laser powers responsibly. You wouldn't want to hurt your doctors. Or would you...?
