The First Vote

Exercise is the key to strength.

I'm hearing voices. What are they saying? They're telling me to do something to say something. What? Vote! America please vote! What's happening? Shouldn't disembodied voices be more insidious? Holy Uncle Mort.

Can you feel the excitement building? The election is more than a month off. Nonsense!! It's not more than a month off? Yes, technically, in the sense that time is ordinarily measured. But it's so close I can taste it. You can taste the general election? Like chocolate mousse! The season of the political junkie is upon us.

Kinda Fun

Back from MLK Day so soon? There were tons of people. We finished painting the rec center early. 3 hours makes you a good person? At least I went! Hey! I sacrificed for Dr. King's memory. I refrained from violent video games. Congrats. An MLK Day of internet service.
