This One for That One

A lot of people fought long and hard to give me the right to a secret ballot. This time around, though, I'm happy to show it to anyone who cares to look.

I like this ballot system much better than the InkaVote thing they have in LA, and much better than any kind of computerized bullshit. I spent four years using computers to design fusion reactors, but I sure as hell don't trust them with an election. Pen and paper, thanks.

Normally, I really, really hate mornings. When my radio clicked on this monring, it was in the middle of a country song. The first lyric that came up was, "I'm so tired of Mr. Wrong, I'm gonna find me a Mr. Right." That was the first time I've woken up laughing in years.

I'm going to fix myself a nice steaming cup of democracy.
