The joke has been made repeatedly that John McCain's campaign slogan should be, "Get Offa My Lawn". And, over the past three days, I've nearly posted about fifteen things about his ridiculous effort to become President based on his being the oldest guy who still wants the job.
But life is short, and the blogs are already doing all the work.
Without question, I'll still post political stuff in the very near future -- possibly later today, 'cause stuff happens, y'know? But I've got music to write. People to see. Things to do. My first FuMP song in five months goes live tomorrow, and I'm finishing up a vocal track for
cadhla, and then it's full bore into Herbert West, with lots of other stuff to follow.
There simply isn't time to even bother with all of McCain's bullshit.
So, what are you doing this weekend instead of dwelling on politics?
ETA: I'm very glad
markbernstein reminded me that our dear friend and occasional Smithtone Tom Underwood is in a play this and next weekend here in Ann Arbor. It's worth clicking just to see the look on his face....

Oh yeah. Fun for the whole family. *smirk*

...so yeah, politics is the least thing on my mind at the moment.
Though this made me laugh out loud...still snickering 12 hours later...

Date: 2008-10-09 04:56 pm (UTC)So, Tom, have you ever considered participating in NaNoWriMo? You're already the world's fastest filker ... how about writing a 50,000 word novella in 30 days? :)

Date: 2008-10-09 05:12 pm (UTC)This Sunday: Texas State Fair. I am so in love with my workplace-furnished DART pass that will get me down there, onto the shuttle, and in the gate at a $2 discount.
Oh, and tonight the whole house is heading up to Plano to visit a couple of our friends. They recently had a baby and mommy's having a rough time of it (suspected PPD), so we're dropping off five casseroles and seeing if there's anything else we can be helpful with.

Date: 2008-10-09 05:39 pm (UTC)Other than that I'm working on cleaning up the house and readying it for replacing every inch of carpet with some kind of sorta-wood replacement. I also need to figure out whether it will more of a pain to run speaker cable and Cat5e under the house or through the attic. Either way it will be a pain in the butt, but I need to do it.
Other than that I'm looking forward to OVFF.
