Polls. Electoral college. Voter fraud. Voter intimidation. Voter exhaustion. How the Seahawks did. The Red Sox winning the World Series. Osama Bin Laden on tape. The "October Surprise." The "bulge." Mobile phones users. Swing states. Battleground states. Senator Bunning. 527s. The weather on election day. Lost absentee ballots. Lost ballots from the Armed Forces. Halliburton. Chief Justice Rehnquist. The Sinclair Broadcasting Co. Fox News. Florida. Ohio. Iowa. Wisconsin. Minnesota. Michigan. Iraq. Afghanistan. Iran. North Korea. Israel. Palestine.

Oh, yes, and don't forget: black box voting and Diebold.

AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

The concert: I know! WTH? I have a friend who has to audition actors tomorrow night, and he's pissed, too.

Oh, yes, and the challenges. I'm not fooling myself into believing that it will all be over by the time the local news comes on.

I'm worried about you coping with tomorrow. You'll have to read the Serenity Prayer a few times. You will have to accept some things are beyond your control.

oh, see, you have to understand that everything is under my control. The universe spins only because I think about it.

Hmmm. That looks silly in print, doesn't it. But it's true. It's true.

Haha! I'm trying to connect historical events with newtons physics in the intro of my novel. It's not looking good in print, either. Time to work on another section.

I didn't realize you were working on one. Working on another section is the best thing.

It's not how the Seahawks did, its how the Redskins did.
AND it is how the DJIA did in October.. another test Bush has failed.
But they might cheat themselves up to the right number of votes.

mmm--I'd been told Seahawks. On NPR's Morning Edition, they went through all of the superstitious indicators of the election results.

You know, last night before I went to sleep, I actually imagined Kerry winning. It was a beautiful vision. Might as well have 1 night of hope, given what may happen today. Then I dreamed about him.

Please, oh please, let Kerry win!

I figure that if the Red Sox have won the World Series, then there has to be some hope that Kerry will win the election!

But that's just my own Boston superstition. :):) I swear that I saw a pig flying outside my window, too. ;-)

I strong-armed one of my friends into registering and voting. She called me last night to give her a short, unbiased opinion about both candidates. I had to use a lot of discipline not to say, "Bush is evil! Vote for Kerry!"

The Red Sox prediction is not your imagination--I heard that out here, too.
