Wait a second...you mean to tell me that people are voting toDAY?! November 2nd is Election Day?! WHOA WHOA WAIT A SECOND. I HAD NO IDEA! I must have magically bypassed the dozens of people on the Diag a month ago shoving voter registration cards into my face and demanding that I vote November 2nd. I must not have watched the hundreds of TV programs that have been following this election since campaigning began 18 months ago. I must not have seen Puff Daddy (oh wait, my mistake, P.DIDDY) telling me to "Vote or Be Castrated" (or something equally extreme). The e-mail from the President of our University? I totally missed that! The mysterious shirts and HUGE sign above the Grad Library that read "November 2nd”…? I never knew what that meant! The Op-ed pieces in "The Michigan Daily" and the relentless radio ads? I just didn’t pay attention. It’s a good thing “random-guy-outside-South-Quad” told me to vote today because I would have just COMPLETELY not see the long lines for the Voting booths in the Lounge and forgotten to vote. WHEW!

| "This is the most important election of our lives" is an euphemistic way of saying "This president is so f*ckin terrible, if we don't get him out of office we will all have to suffer four more years with this idiot as our president" |

| Ah yes. If you have a problem and you can't solve it, just go ahead and electrocute it away!

And you thought your parents had a dysfunctional marriage...
"Well let's see. What would be the perfect ending to this night? We had a romantic walk on the boardwalk and then an intimate motorcyle ride back home...I know! I'll throw a wire into her bathtub and save our marriage!" Can you imagine a Hollywood dramatic retelling of that story? I would cast Arnold Schwarzenegger as the husband and Queen Latifah as the wife. |

| So I was listening to Alicia Keys' "Karma" today and I could have sworn I heard the first few measures of the Brahms violin concerto in the background...repeated over and over again, and slightly "arranged". Am I imagining things. ?! |
