Nov. 7th, 2006 01:55 pmHelpful links for today:
The National Campaign for Fair Elections gives you instructions on what to do if you feel your right to vote is being denied. Their phone number, 866-OUR-VOTE, can be used to give you voting information for where you live or for immediate assistance if you're getting screwed.
Also:
CNN's main election page
CNN Senate Tally Page ("key" elections) Over here is the complete list by state
CNN House Tally Page ("key" elections) Over here is the complete list by state
CNN Governor Tally Pag ("key" elections) Over here is the complete list by state
Also:
This site is fun. It was wrong in 2004 for President, but who really believes the "real" results from that year, anyway?
Also:
The United States General Elections page over at Wikipedia.
Also:
BBC coverage, click on the states on the map for details.
Good luck.

Oct. 31st, 2006 02:59 pmHalloween 2006.
I dressed as...
THE PATRIOT ACT!
Harassing librarians!
Taking that important illegal wiretap call!
The book is just some research I'm doing for my cousin, H.R. 6166.
You know, the "Torture Bill." Those liberals and their crazy nicknames!
Oh, and the cash in my pocket is from a money laundering scheme I broke up. It's not a bribe. It doesn't belong to me. Be quiet.
Must dash, children. No worries, though, I'll be watching.
And listening.

I wrote a big thing about why New Year’s is my second favorite holiday, Halloween being the first.
But I’ve decided, fuck that, people always say the same things about New Years: big changes, the year I finally do (insert thing here), wiping the slate clean.
The slate is not clean.
The world is not clean.
Most of us will not lose weight and shape-up.
But, goddamn it, you have a fucking OBLIGATION to make the world a better place. Why? Because I said so.
2005: has a nice science-fiction ring to it, yes?
Try making it the year where you make a difference. To the world, to yourself, to somebody else.
Arbitrary date? Yes.
Resolutions for shit? Yes.
Bills and worries gone? No.
A WAY TO FEEL THAT SOMETHING NEW IS HERE, AND THAT YOU WILL HELP MAKE IT SOMETHING IMPORTANT? You know the answer.
On that note, maybe this year when I promise you a story, I’ll actually deliver.
I have one for tomorrow night, I hope.

CURRENT BOOK: THE GOD OF SMALL THINGS, Arundhati Roy
LAST MOVIE: Bits of RAISING HELEN that Sara’s family was watching
CURRENT MUSIC: “Gooby Mass” – Lou Reed
LAST THING I SAW THAT MADE ME WANT TO CRY AND HIT THINGS AT THE SAME TIME: http://www.ogrish.com *WARNING* this is not a site for the faint of heart. This is a site for people who want to see what a suicide bombing REALLY looks like. What an execution of Iraqi cops REALLY looks like. Why I am so fucking opposed to the war it makes me sick. Damn, but I am bitter tonight. I gotta go kiss my wife.
Oh, and special thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
