Note to self: never move to Kansas

02.04.08 | Barack Obama, commentary, environment | 1 Comment

When Dick and I moved to Florida in June 2004, we arrived just in time for the worst hurricane seasons in recent history. Now we’ve moved to Utah in time for record snowfalls and plunging (plunging!) temperatures. I vow now, oh ye inhabitants of tornado alley and volatile volcanic regions, that we’ll stay put here long enough for the weather patterns to chill out. Or until Candidate Obama figures out how to Save the Planet:


I had assumed that Dick and Jane were Republicans, but probably they were apolitical, although, really, they were quite Eisenhower-ish, hmmm.

Dick says Obama is awesome. If he has to choose between Obama and Clinton, the choice is clear. What? Why does he have to choose between those two? Aaack. I think Obama has an awesome PR team, as long as you don’t notice you’re responding to the upbeat music, rousing images, and slightly self-aggrandizing, and, perhaps, just the teensiest bit over-confident slogans.

If anyone really could end a war, save the planet, and change the world, I don’t think I’d want to elect him. I’d want to canonize him, at the very least.

totally unrelated, but fun to read
