Three is a very good number. But it's also a very slow pace. Maybe two threes.

A semi buffer! I want to rush ahead to a silly direction I've decided to take, but we'll get there.

edit! comics below this post!

A chain letter, given answers. Found at a forum at which I lurk.

Possible editing, but this won't change the overall opinion.

You're unlikely to vote for Obama if you.....



Applies!1. aren't registered to vote in France or Germany.
Canuckian!

No Applies!2. believe Gen. Petraeus is more important than Al Gore.
Al Gore jumpstarted a liberal christian groundswell for environmental protection.

NA!3. nod every time you read a Thomas Sowell column.
Dunno him. (let's find out!) Well. The Galbraith Effect. He compares Barack's speaking to a teacher named Galbraith, who gives nothing but big idea opening lectures, throughout a term. Awesome lectures but hey. But Galbraith has got his job, his tenure. He can get down to brass tacks, were he inclined. Barack is competing for a job, appealing to people who are laypeople. These people know they're hurting, but not why. So there are big ideas flying around. About why are we hurting. But we're not sure which one to focus on, so any examination of detail will be coloured in the light of being enough to destroy it. Barack can't get down to his brass tacks, cuz they're rooted in YEARS, not of senatorship, but of community service, and teaching law. Community service is much closer to being an executive, where you need those details that Galbraith chooses not to impart, and Barack is unable to convey, because he is in the middle of a horse race!

Soooooo, via extrapolation I find hard to explain, I think this article is false for reasons that may seem tangentially related.

All I've got to say about his opinion about autism in Autism cures? is as a person who was diagnosed at 18-20ish (it took a while to diagnosis and get treatment of any sort), and continuing to be a mess of a an adult years later, I could have used some earlier detection. I could seriously rage the rest of this post about this. Not even kidding.

NA!4. have ever caught yourself humming the theme from" The Green Berets."
Dunno em. Canuckian!

A!5. have gotten your pants dirty in the last week.
Yup, washing cars.

A!6. kinda like a good steak once in a while.
I am a carnivore nearly exclusively. :D Never heard of Arugula before, either.

NA!7. have accidentally discharged your gun during church services in a bitter fit of antipathy over people who aren't like you.
...no gun? This one is a joke, right? We have gangs in other cities in my province. Just reading about it is scary.

A!8. wouldn't mind knowing if your 14 year old daughter was being taken by a non-family member to Toledo for an abortion.
Let's call it my sister. Yes, but her choice. Just being taken to Toledo would be reason enough, actually.

NA!9. prefer the Super Bowl to the World Cup.
Stanley, suckers. And if swords on your feet is not enough to make you fly, maybe you should go play a real man's sport. It's called rubgy.

NA!10. know Sig Sauer isn't the name of Obama's domestic policy advisor.
Sig who now? Ooooooh, gun maker. My gun experience is paintball.

NA!11. are certain Obama would've taken the tank ride if Dukakis hadn't beaten him to it.
that's just dirty. go ask John McCain if he knows how many Iraqi merchants present at his market-ride are still alive. That's dirtier AND more deserved. Looking awkward or deaths. Your choice.

NA!12. can't describe Obama's position on the surge without using the word "incoherent."
He tries to be nice, and they stab him on it, is what I've seen. Twist the knife, too. Liberal media, sure.

A!13. don't think having a baby is "punishment.".
If I didn't want one. If I couldn't afford one, and no one's helping me, and I made a mistake and oh shit here it is.

NA!14. have heard about Obama's vote against the Induced Birth Infant Liability Act.
nope! (looks) soo, vague talking about the bill. The votes were present, then no. What I know of Barry's voting record is that he follows the convention of voting present when you are not at disfavour with the act, but feel it contains something that's a critical flaw. If you were to want to actually burn Obama, go check on that critical flaw.

NA!15. tend to giggle whenever Nancy Pelosi talks energy policy.
*looks* oil drilling isn't actually her decision. I remember something about congress just letting it expire, following executive privilege. They're just not boosting the executive privilege. Do people really gotta be cheerleaders to the prez always?

NA!16. think your taxes are plenty high already, thank you very much.
...don't you guys have a dying road network? For reals, I'm pretty sure you do. Tax cuts ain't gonna convince businesses to rebuild all that.

A!17. prefer legislation come from Congress, not the Supreme Court
dunno. not american. I'd like to think my supreme court was protecting minorities in addition to helping people in general to protect themselves.

NA!18. believe we'd be in a world of hurt if we'd followed Obama's advice on Iraq last year.
I would resent being asked how to fight a war I didn't want to fight in the first place. End it, end it, end it. Eh, I'm a non fighty liberal. Wars are always a crapshoot that's nearly un-second-guessable these days, anyway.


_________________________________V - Reverse!
A!19. resent the suggestion you're a racist for treating Obama like a serious presidential candidate.
Previous chainletters ultimately supporting republicans seriously had 'sekrit mooselim' charges. Seriously. You're serious in lying to beat him, maybe.

A!20. hear the name "Osama Bin Laden" and words other than "habeas corpus" come to mind.
Nicaragua, Cuba, Iran Contra, Chile, to name a few. Oh yah, the Philippines, where you guys, no joke, used waterboarding.

NA!21. were to meet William Ayers, you'd be more likely to bop him in the nose than join his board.
If you're gonna make me bop him, I'm joining his board. That's about it.

A!22. list either Patton, Braveheart or 300 among your favorite movies.
300 is fun. I'm media deprived in general, though.

NA!23. realize that Obama's Speech of the Century on race was, in hindsight, a crock.
...I liked it. :( It was Canadianish. I think it had bits about understanding each other that America could really benefit from hearing. Calling things crocks doesn't make them crocks. But if you call it a crock enough, maybe people will think it's a crock, eh?

A!24. wonder which government agency is in charge of healing the planet.
Let's wonder which ones have seriously considered killing the planet, first, please.

NA!25. personally know somebody who packs his passport whenever traveling to San Francisco... just in case.
???

10 apply!

Score (# of descriptions that apply to you):
0— You heard that according to Publisher's Clearinghouse, Al Gore won Florida
I heard a supreme court decided it. Conspiracy theories of a republican governor abound.
1—3 You think that had Ron Paul gotten more time in the debates he'd be the nominee
PURESTRAIN GOLD!
4—24 McCain's your man
OBAMA! All of my fingers and all of my toes are 24/7 crossed for Obama!
25 If only Fred Thompson would drink more coffee....
Gots no jokes to make of him.

Experimenting. More to come Wednesday. We were in a fantasy virtual world, now we're going to a near future semi utopia.

Look at comments for something that is both a joke, or maybe a spoiler of a joke, and an explanation.

Incidentally, commenting is ok, but I am too poor at communicating to really have a conversation.

Here is a map of Ilum that is hard to understand, but which I intend to label and dissect.

Lack of motivation, computer troubles, and art problems have contributed to me not having anything this week either. Let's try for next week.
