Last night I get a text from my Brother (the married one, not the other married one).
Anonymous_Blogger: Dude, I just got hit by #2 because I spoke while she was on the phone with her parents. She's 29.
Me: HAHA ZOMG
I promptly forwarded it to my PIC (remember: partner in crime)
PIC: hahahaha. I think that's like when [asian] would hit him if he talked while she was ordering fast food.
(couple minutes later)
PIC: He's in the first stage of a relationship...denial...I remember those days...No, [insert girls name here]'s wayyyy better than the last one...if there is one thing I've learned it's that slits are all the same.
Here is some fun math for you voters/non-voters:
For the sake of argument and before the final votes are tallied, we'll say that Barack won by 7M votes. So let's just say that my chances of changing the outcome of the popular vote would have been 1 in 7,000,000.
In a 49 ball lottery, where the player picks 6 balls and all 6 must match to win, the chances of winning are 1 in 13,983,816. That is roughly half the statistical probability of effecting the election. Buy 2 of those same lottery tickets and the odds are lined up almost exactly.
The moral of this story is a "Here is what I should have done". I should have registered to vote, bought two lottery tickets and then voted for McCain. Because if I win that multi-million dollar jackpot, I'm going to jump up a tax bracket or two. And if I'm going up a few tax levels, I'm sure as hell going to want a rich white guy protecting my $$$.
As it turns out I just sat on my ass. My thoughts on the election can be summed up by my lawyer: To paraphrase Blazing Saddles "The president is a [bell tower rings]"
I think he said "The president is near"...

I'm glad I'm loved enough to be written about.
And not only by you, but by our dearest cousin as well. Here.
I need to go smoke some pot. Peace.
