• A Massachusetts liberal for the rest of us?

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m still the guy that has never voted for a Republican chief executive. Considering that meant voting against 41, 43, and a guy who referred to himself in the third person more often than a character on Friends; who could blame me? But let’s do a quick review. Mr Kerry comes from what could be the most “liberal” state this side of San Fran. I know, there’s not much out there on the other side of San Fran – besides a whole lot of water. I’ll be the first to admit an imperfect metaphor, but for the sake of time I’m sticking with it. National politics seem to be gravitating towards the center. That said, does this guy really have a chance? Polls seem to say so, so far anyway. So do I really like this guy? I haven’t decided. I will admit that he wasn’t my first choice, or my second choice for that matter. There is one thing I am sure of: my streak won’t be coming to an end this time around.

  • Ahhhh!

    Who out there hasn’t toiled with the masses for hours on end, only to go home and lie back as close to horizontal as possible and still be able to face the T.V.? What greater feeling is there than knowing you’re obligation free for the next two hours? When you were growing up did you appreciate the value of two hours? At what point did doing nothing for two hours go from torture to heavenly bliss? Is that something else that changes with puberty? Does growing more body hair have anything to do with it, or is it just coincidence?

  • Answer me this, padwan.

    What is tired, white and sore all over? What do you get with four hours sleep and a grueling bicycle ride home?

    Oh, it wasn’t all that bad. Inexplicably, I had one of my most productive days at the office. Maybe there’s something to that medical school of thought? The true test of any finding is to replicate the results. Any takers?
