Well I thought I’d have more to say on here these days with the recent election and all but I’ve just slipped into this state of disinterest, which has carried over into my Blogging. I am slacking off on keeping things up-to-date.

The election is behind us and who the hell knows what lies ahead. I’ve read so much commentary on the state of things that I don’t even know where to begin to articulate an opinion of my own. I think the newspapers in the U.K. said it best with the headlines, How Can 59 million people be so dumb!. That about sums it up. I keep wondering who the hell out there would vote for Bush. That same question was asked during a discussion on MSNBC, and an analyst simply stated, “look at the map, get over it!”. It’s just amazing that all of the blue democrat states lie along the coast, coincidently where all of the major metropolitan areas are, where people are educated, where the best universities are, where the technology centers are, and where people actually communicate with one another instead of hiding at home with thier guns and their bibles. Guns, God and Gays right? Screw healthcare, the economy, the fact that we are at war, that the terrorist groups are getting bigger, that Bin Laden practically has his own talk show, that our deficit is growing and that job loss is at an all time high. I wish Republicans would actually take a look at the damn party platform for once instead of just wrapping themselves in the flag. I grew up as a republican and served in the military and I did my homework. Being fiscally conservative does not mean increasing the federal deficit to the largest in world history. Being for small government does not mean having the largest government bureaucracy in history with the creation and consolidation of Homeland Security. And another thing, my God loves us all. If you’re going to make laws that give certain benefits to married couples and not allow me to get married because I’m gay, how can I have equal protection under the law? How can you say that marriage is between a man and a women as defined in the bible and make it law when we have freedom of religion in this country? Why can athiests get married but gay people can’t? It goes on and on, but hey… we’re safer right?! My ass… I’m moving to Australia.

Anyway, I was in LA for Halloween. It was crazy. They shut down Santa Monica Blvd and from 6pm to midnight it is just filled with all types of people in costumes walking around having fun. It was a great time. We watched the crowds and did some bar-hopping. I took a bunch of pictures that I’ll post later.

I’m in New Hampshire for a few weeks. I’ll be back in San Diego on the 17th. Maybe I’ll find the inspiration to write more before then. I have LOTS to say. ;) At least New Hampshire is Kerry country this time around.
