Ewwww! Ew! Ick! Icky icky Get offa me!
Edited on Mon Nov-03-08 10:05 AM by crim son
I was just visiting the FReeps and their habitat is tainted with not merely the usual odor of decay but also the stink of doubt and fear. I'm afraid somebody's going to smell it on me so I'll have to take drastic action: I'm leaving the house now to go vote for Barack Obama for President of the U.S.A. Woohoo! :woohoo: :bounce: :woohoo: :bounce: :patriot:

On edit: NO MONDAY VOTING IN BANGOR. Pah! The doors were locked and I'm freaking disappointed. Also got into a small tiff with the boyfriend over expectations for Obama. An EXCELLENT start to the day. I think I'll bake some cookies. :(

2. I was too sick to leave the house last week.
Early voting has ended in FL, so I'll be first in line tomorrow!!!

Are you feeling better yet?

3. I just amended my original post: early voting has ended here, too.
:cry:

I am feeling much better though my headache never quite disappears. How about you? Are you able to get out & about? :hug:

14. Well, I've been working the last few days.
Haven't enjoyed it too much though.

Gonna go home tonight and make a hot mulled wine and just relax and look forward to tomorrow.

4. The best way to get the aroma of ignorance, fear and hatred off of you, crim son, is just not
to visit Freak Republic in the first place.

Abstinence DOES work! (On some things, anyway... B-) )

7. "You know me; fixated on the bad & ugly. Hi Aristus!" Did you intentionally word it that way?
Reminds me of that old church bulletin blooper: "Today's sermon: 'What is Hell?' Come early and listen to our choir practice!"

:rofl:

8. OMG. We used to call them "transparent thought trains."
My favorite example was this: when looking at the face of a friend with terrible acne, say, "Man, I feel like pizza." It was the friend with terrible acne who came up with it, otherwise it wouldn't be as amusing.

No; it was badly worded. :rofl:

6. Tea tree oil removes freeper stink
Don't try tomato juice, it doesn't work (the smell comes back) and it just ends up making a mess. FYI :hi:

11. Tell your boyfriend you're making chewy cookies
then make some biscotti!

The aroma of the anise should also work for eliminating the stink :)

12. I read somewhere that they closed some of the early voting locations
Edited on Mon Nov-03-08 12:34 PM by fight4my3sons
so that they could start counting the ballots. I can't remember where I read it though. I'm sorry you went out and didn't get to vote! :(

I canvassed on Sat and there were some people that wanted to vote today, so I'm hoping that Rockland is still open for voting.

Hope your day gets better. :hug:

found the article with the information about closed polling locations.
"The early turnout is so heavy that 30 communities will be closing their in-person early voting booths on Monday, so officials in those towns can process the ballots they have already received, get them ready for tabulating and otherwise prepare for Election Day."

13. Saturday at noon was the last time you could vote absentee in Maine.
I got in on Thursday.

Good luck with the crowds tomorrow!
