I think..
I posted that the New England Patriots would beat Miami's unbeaten record at the end of last season.
I was one of the few people in the world that knew the Red Sox would do it, even when they were three games down to the NY Yankees. (Check my posts from three weeks ago to now.) I also predicted a World Series ring finally for the "idiots from Boston."
Of course, now there's a TX vs. MA huge contest happening on Tuesday. A three-fer would be so sweet, wouldn't it? I wish I had the same confidence in a Kerry victory as I did for the sports teams- but I don't. I hate to say this, and I pray (well, I would pray if I weren't an atheist, nihilist, agnostic or whatever I am supposed to be) I pray that it will not happen, but I think that George Bush is going to win this election, and I am depressed about it.
So, you wanna know what people like me do in the face of impending DOOM? We fall into the fairy-tale land of pretend and make-believe and "what-if-" That's what we do.
Wanna see what that is like? It's pretty cool; I've been doing it all my life. (You should have seen the way I jumped on those two dudes who were firing from the grassy knoll back in '63 and beat the shit out of them before the cops came and took over... and you would have loved the way I kidnapped Christa McAuliffe on January 27, 1986, and held her captive until after the Mother Ship took off.
but I digress..
Come into my brain for a minute...

This afternoon I heard Jay Severin say (almost an exact quote), "It pains me to say it, but if you ask me for my professional opinion, the way the trends (polls) are playing out right now, if you asked me to bet my house on the outcome of the election today, I'd bet that John Kerry wins."

Visualize this right here. Sorry Chucky, that little presentation was weaker than a gallon of one bag tea. I understand your support of the "anybody but Bush" crowd, but to truly believe that Kerry (my personal senator) is worth more than the ransom of two dead flies (authentic Texas expression)is delusional.
Anyway, cheer up. The "DOOM" you're concerned about is pouting on the sofa right next to the discovery of cold fusion and the Y2K apocalypse. Patriots not withstanding.

Yvonne,
You're a blond?

No, Danny- and she knows how to spell "blonde" as well.
(Are you going to the hairdresser today? They have some fab new highlight colors.)

Yvonne’s Bro,
According to Webster’s Seventh New Collegiate Dictionary Page 91, “BLOND or BLONDE Noun 1: a blond person 2: a light yellowish brown to dark grayish yellow”
So Fuck you JERKOFF or is it JERK-OFF?

Charles:
The whole "gracious Yankee loser" gig is doing a job on Danny. That's why he's so testy. Wait until he has to add the "Gracious Republican Loser" act to his repertoire ;-).
