Happy Election Day! Yes, today is the day where we get to decide the fate of our little chunks of the world. I haven't missed an election since I turned 18. I haven't actually gone out and voted yet today though. See, my polling place is at an elementary school. Instead of allowing the kids to have a day off and make it much easier for us hard working people to go vote...perhaps even making the kids tag along, we have to fight our way into already overcrowded school parking lots. I made the mistake of trying to vote in the morning a couple years back. I nearly got into a fistfight with a guy in an orange vest who thought he was a policeman. So, being a person who tries to avoid conflicts whenever possible, I'll just go after work when the kiddies aren't there. So, in the immortal words of Al Capone, "Vote early, vote often!"
