where to go?

so i got my voter registiration card in the mail today for where i am suppose to go to come nov 4th.
i am excited to vote. i am excited to be able to have the right to vote. its something that i always looked up to my parents for doing when i was younger and in the years since turning 18 i have voted with pride. we live in a amazing uniquely country that is based upon voting to make freedom possibly. i am grateful that i have been given this right.
something cool that found out about the other day is on google.com you know with the maps section how you can find anywhere on the map and in most major cities in the united states see the street view? well now they have a section where you can click and see where it is you are suppose to go to vote based upon where you live. i think this is a genius idea because it settles the confusion that prevents some who can vote from voting, and encourages those who dont register because they dont know where to go, to register. it takes away the complaining, nagging and bull shit that people use to stay in their homes instead of getting out and making a change in america

moral fiber

so McCain the man that the republican party has chosen to represent them for the presidency has hit an all time low. first off he hasn't kept in check the comments that are coming from his vice presidential candidate at these so called "rallies" going on in swing states for the election. the accusations that she is saying, in that Obama is a terrorist and associates with terrorists. no to mention that people at these rallies are shouting out obscenities that are being heard and not addressed as offensive, disillusioned and as being completely out of touch with reality. people in the crowd have been heard to be shouting racial remarks towards the other parties candidate, as well as things like "kill him". are you serious? in this day and age this sort of behavior is coming from grown adult people of the free world. is there really that many ignorant people out there that think this sort of shouting and behavior is acceptable. we are talking about voting for the president of the united states not Jerusalem circa 33 a.d. shouting these sort of statements in fact makes not only McCain, but those he associates with, "the people who attend these rallies" look like they are the aggressors and terrorists. you go to a Obama rally and you will find him talking about the facts and where he stands, not trying to focus his whole campaign on the fact that his opponent has associated with questionable people in his past. but i find it funny because don't you John McCain have a lot of skeletons in your closet too?
how i see it is like this, its the moral fiber of the candidate. this election is for the new leader of the free world. although we are going through some tough times right now and the economy is in shambles, there is a lot that this new president will have to handle. which of these two candidates is better suited to serve based on how they are acting? at the current moment this is not even a question McCain needs to grow up and talk about the issues at hand. put the muckraking aside, because frankly you look like a little kid and you expect me and millions of other Americans to vote for you so what, when you get into the white house you can wine and complain about other people. what is your stand on things? how are you going to change this country? because i cant tell you right now the diplomacy or lack there of that has gone on for the past 8 years is what got us into this mess. you claim you want to united the parties and bridge the great division between them. great way to start pal.......

those little code verification boxes

you know those little code verification boxes that they have on sites like amazon.com, and half.com to verify and secure the payment? well those are understandable for those sites but now they are on myspace and other websites like that. wtf? I hate these things. first off the are so "encrypted" that you cant read them most of the time. is it a 7 or a L with all the cool wiggling and whatnot i sometimes find myself type two or three times over just to post a lousy comment for someone to let them know something totally irrelevant or urgent. do we really need this type of security on something like a social networking site. don't get me wrong i know these sites are filled with creep-balls and lame people that like to promote the world of porn for their own sick reasons but for a simple comment they need to keep it simple. someone who is spamming these websites isn't going to take the amount of time it takes to figure out these enigmas let alone something that take two seconds to type in. its a waste of their time, and in order to try and create business for obscene sites to waste our time, they do not want to waste their valuable time. so keep it simple networking please i hate trying to figure these things out for something so simple as leaving a friend a comment.
