OT Election

Soon to be over. I guess its possible that a slew of Obama supporters
might not turn up, thinking its a wash, creating a newspaper headling
akin to Dewey Beats Truman, so I encourage EVERYONE to get out and
vote. It ain't over until the last Chad hangs.

Take it from me, the right we have in America to rearrange our
government every 4 or 8 years is something not shared by the majority
of the world's citizenry.

Meanwhile, here's a new polling site I wish I had known about
earlier:

Comparing their projections against www.electoral-college.com is
insightful.

Get out and vote!

The 50's? On summer Saturdays, with the apartment windows wide open,
my father would crank up the Fisher console to blast a disk-full of
Russian folk songs across the neighborhood and then see if he could
drown it out with his sing-along. He had a good time but his kids
payed for it, it wasn't a good era to flaunt a Russian origin. But I
wish I could hear him do it one more time.
