DIARY, EVENT: CONNOR

Several long posts ahead, but I’ll try to keep them interesting.

Also: keep in mind I’m not the only one posting here right now. If you see EVENT: GEMMA, WOLFBARONXYLO, SKYBALLS, or ELISABETH, then someone else is posting…

MUG SHOTS

I know I said I’d post last night, but my phone was disconnected, barringinternet access.

EVENT: skyballs

president W is clearly better than i am. here is why:

This blog shall maintain these nightshades through November at least, not in outrage at President Bush, but in mourning for the American people who elected him.

Dear Sen. John Kerry,

I sit here in Chicago with my Michigan absentee ballot on November 03. The ballot arrived from home yesterday, Election Day. I have always had an overwhelming sense of political efficacy, despite the misgivings I have had toward the haphazardous process outlining the two national elections which I have been of age to participate in.

EVENT: CONNOR

That’s all

Blue Skies Falling

EVENT: Gemma

So at long last, waiting for my hair to dry before I go vote, I’m going to blog on Blue Skies Falling.

To all those who don’t know me, I’m Connor’s friend from college, passionate lefty who’s at odds to decide why she isn’t going to Wisconsin with people to combat voter disenfranchisement today.

EVENT: CONNOR

I will write a post explaining my choices later tonight.

Unfortunately, I’m short on sleep and time.

Article by Carol Azizian at the Flint Journal:

Robert Katrinic, a Burton artist, has rescued the layers of painted graffiti that once covered the huge concrete rock at 12th Street and Hammerberg Road and converted it into art.

EVENT: CONNOR

EDIT: This was a hoax. I’ve also had revelations that the moon isn’t made of cheese, that the world gullible is defined in the Oxford English Dictionary, and more significantly, that I am evidently not owner of the Brooklyn Bridge.

CONCEPT

We’ve learned a lot, specifically that:

1. Darth Vader does die, eventually.

2. The Tigers don’t suck anymore.

3. The Cubs are more cursed than the Red Sox, and

4. Nader will be elected this week.
