Election

It is not easy to explain how I feel about this last election. Some were celebrating in the street in our neighborhood.

We were out last weekend and I was searching the air waves and settled on a certain radio station. My wife got into the van and started talking, then suddenly stopped....

"Oh my God!" She said; "It's Halloween!"

Yes, certain radio stations had already gone over to all Christmas music and were playing it on Halloween. Actually..... that's sort of exactly how I felt about the election but in some strange inverse. Like they were playing scary music on Christmas.

Caught a picture of a midget carrying around a lady on his shoulders. He does that every Halloween. Sorry for the quality we only have the cell phone.

Alois has posted again. He's really getting into the scene. Less than five months since his last post. A beautiful dog. Alois (and my mom) actually feel the same as I do about President Elect Obama.

The Ice Man Cometh Challenge is tomorrow. I can see why it is so popular. Beautiful remote and well amenitized location. In Germany you can actually get a prescription for a spa. It would be great to end a season with a great challenge as the Ice Man, pushing the limits, and then enjoying the luxury spa facilities. If I had a proper camera it would be worth going just to take pictures. Of course the more neanderthal among us would simply settle for a cold beer.

The Domes just had their grand reopening. Went to the site of the last place I worked and saw that they actually worked on the project. I'll be writing more about my experiences in the profession on my other forum, including the moral/ethical angle.

Still waiting for my hard copy of the WORS movie.
