first day of classes, attempt III
I've never been so eager for daylight savings to come around. I'm not terribly familiar with things geological or circadian or astronomical, but it's almost 7 here and still fairly dark. Now, given that it's the first day of classes, that's fine -- I can handle waking up early and pondering the virtues of going to the gym. But in general, this isn't feasible. The dreary abyss of dead end research isn't the best motivator for one to wake up. And so it is that I'm hoping for some early morning sun.
God, I suck at this whole blog thing.
Anyhow, I got sick of trying to figure out the right wing mind and just began listening to Air America. When you become a daily visitor to "Drudge Report," you tend to wonder what your life would be like without knowing the up-to-the-minute scandal news. But as I've stopped caring, it's funny how life goes by and news doesn't really seem to matter much.
Back when Kerry was doing well, I cared more about the election. Now, I will watch tonight's debate and not try to figure out the mind of the swing voter, because clearly we have all failed at that. Swing voters are evil people with few actual values. If you like guns and babies, vote Bush. If you don't, vote Kerry. It's really as simple as that.

What did you think of the debate last night?
I thought it was pretty weak in general.. Bush kept repeating the same stock phrases about "hard work" over and over and over, but I felt Kerry was also inexcusably weak on the offensive. Why did he keep veering to North Korea when the real "issue" he could hit Bush on is Iraq? What's wrong with multilateral talks with China, Japan, Russia, and (DUH) South Korea? The more leverage the better, and China is one of North Korea's few "allies" in that region. Anyway.
Many news networks have claimed victory for Kerry, but I wasn't very impressed with either candidate's performance.
Geez.. Kerry sounds more pro-war than Bush nowadays.
