Get Out and VOTE

Today is the day everyone should get out and VOTE already!  I don't usually ramble into political territory on this blog but we owe it to everyone who has lost their lives fighting for our freedoms to get out and vote.  We owe it to ourselves to make our voices heard.  If you don't vote then you lose all credibility if you complain about the current state of affairs.....

'nuff said on politico action....

We woke up to some warm weather this morning.  Yesterday the temps were in the high teens in the morning, this morning they are tickling the mercury in the mid 40's!  If you are to believe the hype, then we are currently in an El Nino year and about to head into an El Nina year...El Nina is supposed to be good for snow so we shall see how it all plays out.

I sat on the trainer for an hour last night as I toggled between 3 sports games...the Blazers, the World Series, and MNF.  The games were non-eventful, unless of course you are a Giants fan and got to celebrate in their victory.  It was a somewhat easy session on the trainer and the name of the game was trying to keep a high cadence without pushing too many watts (power).  It looked a little something like:


With these kind of temps, we might just be able to scrounge another ride on Thurs night (this time sans the outfits and costumes though).

As I was walking the dogs on Saturday, we ran into a dude who was dressed in full 'padre' gear.  The priest was with a lady friend and 3 kids so it is hard to know whether he was really a man of the cloth or a halloween impostor.  As we walked by, one of the girls just started screaming at the top of her lungs...needless to say it freaked all of us out, but especially Moby (our 5 1/2 old ridgeback) who had this look of shock on his face.  We motored a long after I said hello and they did a masterful job of ignoring any kind of salutation.  If he indeed was a man of the cloth, then I don't want to go to his congregation of non-friendliness...it was one of those Seinfeld moments where you think of a million things to say after the moment has already passed.. Who knows what kind of mission he was on, but I do know what kind of mission these boys were on (they play both kinds of music....Country & Western - for those you taken in by the country hip hop video (like I was), you can practice with the following):
