Scattered Thoughts...
With this upcoming election, I see people on AIM that have little tag lines and what not in their profiles. Whether it be "I believe in W" or "Plant a Bush back in Texas".... it seems like they are everywhere. I'm not saying that this is necessarily "wrong," buuut I believe that if you are going to take a strong stand for (or for the same matter, against) a candidate, that you have your facts straight.
As many of you know, I love playing devils advocate. Also, I love facts. I encourage everyone who is voting in the November election to take a look at the facts as they stand.
HERE are the facts: http://www.pickyourpresident.com/
Now, everyone has different morals and wishes. Of course not everyone will agree on everything (if we all did, there would be nothing such as violence and wars)... I just ask that you review the facts, and based on your own morals and knowledge make a decision. Know your facts, and make your best decision.
Just know that your right to vote means a little more than just filling in a dot on a piece of paper.
And if i ask you questions about the candidate you're advertising on your profile, it's just to see if you know what you're talking about... or if you're just another one who has joined a bandwagon.

Anyways. now my life...
Last night was so crazy at the PD. I don't think I left my console between 7pm and about 5am except once. wow. JMU kids... ya'll make HPD's weekends so much fun, I swear. :--P
Then today I went to the orchard to get some cider, and then ended up at Station 3 with the guys. Moffet had to make fun of me for last Saturday, of course. lol. (rightfully so, I deserved it).
Then we went with them to get gas in the engine and just hung around there for a little while longer... until we got a call for a fire involving a townhouse. Yeah, that was pretty crazy. Some guy took a picture of us there and got our names for a DNR thing. (will post later if it's in there)
Hung out there for about an hour and a half...
Oh, during it Chief 1 comes up and looks at me and amanda and says "look at all these single guys around you, you think you could find one of them to date you all". lol. Well then after he went back in the bldg, Mark Monger says "well you should tell him you all have already tried all the ones here." lol. Thanks guys. We love ya'll... really we do. :--P
Then after the fire we decided to go see Ladder 49 (again)... I love that movie. I don't think I have eaten that much popcorn at once in my entire life!!! :--X
So... end of story, I'm back here in my townhouse again... and looking into fire insurance. (figured that i really *should* have that since i advocate everyone else getting it... and after tonight... yeah.) Anyways, that's all I have for tonight. I'll update with pictures like i promised later. :--)
