Thanks.
With the search terms being “thanksgiving,” I figure they just happened onto it, while looking for holiday ideas.
Course, I’ve been wrong before.

nuke, a little surprised at the number of hits on my old thanksgiving story.
Must be some good Mom’s out there, planning ahead, doing some google searches.

Today was the last day of early voting in Texas.
Got’er done!
Pulled into the crowded parking lot, and there were advocates of various people, scattered strategically, to insure they could harass everyone with their particular candidate or cause. One group, with B-HO placards, were looking at me as I pulled into the parking space, but the red/white/blue I AM JOE banner in my rear window, that I printed out from iowahawk, stopped them dead in their tracks.
Quite the crowd, and was a little concerned at how long the line was, as I had things to see, and people to do.
But, the line moved quickly, because they had so many machines inside, the touch screen type.
Went through the registration check-in, got my form, and waited for the poll monitor. I got the obviously gay, tattooed, skinny hispanic guy, with earrings, who had questionable hygiene practices. He knew I knew who and what he was, as did he know me, so our interaction was, thankfully, very-very brief. He took my form, inserted the cartridge into the machine, logged in my number, and stepped away.
Badda-boom badda-bing, I was done. The line was even longer, than when I came in, so I loudly told the crowd to not be concerned, it moves quickly. One lady, with two young kids, smiled and said thanks.
Now, in this state, I know my vote doesn’t matter, B-HO ain’t welcome here, but still, for the few fringe types, and young voters, seeing a large, straight, well groomed, and well nourished white male there, let them know, that at least one of their votes just got canceled.

Oh I won’t, Robert D, if I see that horror show coming at me, I will empty a thirty round magazine into him.
I live in Texas, we can have those hi-caps.

As for Zogby, take it for what it’s worth, but he is a true blue flamed out liberal.

Maybe. Or it could just be a trick or treater came to his door.
