We'd keep Iowa, just to have an entitled bunch of whiney babies with no demographic resemblance to the rest of the country to choose our Presidents for us.

At least, for now.

The US system of Primaries and delegates, with different States voting on different days seems so confusing, candidates dropping out and left behind if they don't make a good showing, or hanging on hoping they have a few 'Key states' in their back pocket. (I guess it's a way of weeding out the ones with the less money).

Why not just have a big "SUPER TUESDAY" when the whole country votes. (I guess the candidates couldn't then focus on one particular primary at a time instead of all at once.)

Oh, never mind, this involves politics and it never makes sense and always leads to arguments.

I suppose if it has worked since 1776 (I hope that date is right) there must be some good in it.

That'd be ok by me. (And I live in NH.)

Good then! Nice to have you in Canada. You got to face a drawback though. Stephen Harper; I think he's soulfully related to the Bush clan. I mean soullessly.

nekokami · 02-09-2009, 03:59 PM

The Vermonters might help with that.

Although actually, wasn't this only if Quebec splits off? Do we still have to deal with Harper then?

Hmmm! I don't know the person who'd bring us there but it could be Pauline Marois, a fine person, and she'd be the first Woman Prime Minister in Québec too.

I'm waiting for a courier to show up with a parcel that I wasted all day Friday waiting for. No show today as yet. Went downstairs to check if any courier notices on the door of complex, took the puppy, went outside and then....

No Keys, locked out with puppy

No wallet to prove I live here

No watch to know howwww loooong I've been waiting

Don't know the caretakers buzzer number

Don't know my neighbors names or suite numbers

Wandered around aimlessly walking dog until I recognized someone that would know me.
Finally someone I knew and who knew me, (more likely they knew the puppy)
About an hour out in the cold
Close to tears
Glad I had the puppy
Glad I'm back inside and on MR

I'm going to bury a set of keys somewhere....

I would also learn the caretakers buzznumber.

Thanks dg.
It's written down beside his phone number inside my suite, useless to me outside (duh). I only know him by his first name so I couldn't even look him up on one of 4 intercoms, I'm not even sure which building he lives in.

Maybe the doggie will get 2 shiny new charms for her collar!

Ugghh!! how about sewing a set of keys into your undies ... Actually, tags on the dog with a few extra phone numbers, sounds like a great idea! That, plus the necessary paranioa to never again go anywhere without the keys clipped to your belt! I keep mine on my belt even when I'm *inside*. Just so I can't do that.
