Chill. We've got this in the bag. Easy-peasy. I'm planning on kicking-back Nov. 4th with a bottle of tequila and a mess of tacos.

What's wrong with that?

KIDDING!

Already working and plan on driving people to the polling place.

I jist do wot I be told. Saves me from thinking.

Serious sidenote, the organizers Obama parachuted in to our local office had their tires slashed last week. Things are getting ugly. The Wingers are starting to foam at the mouth. Be careful and watch your back.

And Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Oregon, Oklahoma? Fictions invented so the Texas and California college football teams can play their taxi squads and pretend its an intervarsity game.

Of course, in Oz, it really is just one state for the western 1/3 of the country.

Oklahoma's just Texas with even more crazy.

Nobody actually lives in Wyoming. Even people who say they're from Wyoming, like Dick Cheney, aren't actually from it.

Oregon is a make-believe state that's really just two chunks of Washington and California crammed together.

I'll grant you Colorado.

Actually, I have relatives living in Colorado, out in the plains well east of CO Springs.

And looking around the high plains west of the Rockies when I was there decades ago, it would be easy to believe that it was a purely fictitious state.

Tequila makes hair grow on your chest.

Scotch and Bourbon is for effete Yurp-peons who can't handle a Real Man's/Woman's Drink.

Back when I was living in NYC I got involved with some Irish (illegal) immigrants who would offer me a "wee drop o' the poteen" ere now & again.

Wasn't bad, I must say.

Mostly I don't drink hard liquor as it puts me to sleep after about two slugs.

Making tacos is an epic undertaking, requiring at least five hours of labor. I have to make everything myself, and while it comes out excellent, it's really slow. Nothing I couldn't prep beforehand, though.

Furthermore, I can find a few varieties of Tequila, one of which is properly intoxicating.

The problem is that Nov. 4th in the US is late morning/early afternoon Nov. 5th here in Japan, and I'll be hard at work educating the young minds of Japan when the results come in.

While I'm sure they'd love the tacos, the tequila might be a bit inappropriate.
