South By Interlude

Right. So. About to drop over from too-much-movie-itis (I know, boo fuckin' hoo), and will hopefully have something useful to say next week about the craziness that is SXSW, but in the meanwhile:

My record at not voting for viable candidates stands. As I noted a few weeks ago, I've never backed the winning horse in a political race larger than — at the time — governor. That's because I voted for Gov. Spitzer and he actually won. As of today, I'm back down to never choosing anyone in a race larger than city council, and I'm not even 100% sure I backed any winners there.

Non-profanity cannot express my insane irritation at this series of developments. Moral here? You can't fight The Machine, and you can't even take a good run at The Machine if you keep dropping your pants. I haven't felt this annoyed since Gary Hart taunted the press in the late 1980s and got caught with Donna Hart mere weeks later.

This is the exact reason why we need a woman in top office: Less pants dropping will go on.

So here's the question now. Seriously, folks, should I just go back McCain in November?

    Well…. if you’d like to stick with your record, I would hope people tell you yes. 🙂

    Yeah, I have been considering backing McCain. But he’s the devil.

    I want Hil to win 🙁

    It would all be reverse psychology if I actually voted for a Republican, natch.

    Tameka Lewis the ‘pimp’ who arranged in the DC encounter lives in my bldg! We were getting chased by reporters every time we went in and out for a while. Which brings me to another question. Why in a high priced call girl pimp living in my craphole of bldg?

    In November I’m just going to close my eyes and point.
