My blog is where my wandering thoughts are interspersed with stuff I made up. So, if while reading you find yourself confused about the context, don't feel alone. I get confused, too.
If you're here for the stories, I started another blog: scratchingforchange.blogspot.com
One other thing: sometimes I write words you refuse to use in front of children, or polite company, unless you have a flat tire, or hit your thumb with a hammer.
I don't use them to offend; I use them to embellish.

Undecided Voters
I really don't think there are any undecided voters. Even if there were, they would be so dense, they'd never find their way to the their voting precinct, or forget to mail their ballot.
Umm. I don't know. I guess it depends on how you define Undecided Voters. I've voted in every election since I came of age, and I have to tell you, this is the first election I'm dreading and don't know what to do. I really don't know who to vote for, because I sure as Hell don't want to vote for any of the candidates on offer. I feel it's my civic duty to vote, but how to endorse a candidate you don't believe in? And, what's the point of a write in when there isn't a rat's chance in Hell your write in will be noticed? Besides, I have a sinking feeling that dirty, underhanded practices will be employed and allowed to carry one unworthy politician to the top no matter what the votes say when tallied. I have lost all faith in the democratic process and that is a very sad, sad feeling indeed.
The process would be much better if there was honesty with our media. I blame them more for our problems than anyone else.
What can we do? Stop watching the channels that use their news to promote an agenda and stop buying periodicals that contribute to political views and call it news.
