8. Looks more like a stress-cessation seminar

than an attempt at a political rally. Yep, it's a good bet that nobody got tasered at this event...although paramedics should have been standing by - epinephrine injections & defibrilators at the ready - for those unfortunates who succumb to the effects of terminal boredom.

17. I went to a Kucinich appearance a couple of months ago...

It was held at the Bishop Center at Grays Harbor College, in my hometown of Aberdeen WA.

Aberdeen is a comparatively small, uncultured and backwards town. The Bishop center is the biggest venue. It seats about 500 - roughly 10% of the town's population. What was the description in the paper the following day? "Kucinich speaks to half-empty room".

See? it was just like the Brownback appearance above, but with 237 more people.
