Benazir Bhutto's Death Means NOTHING to my Fundie Clueless Neighbors
So...all this Candidate Pontificating doesn't outweigh the fact that most Americans are worried about their own Financial Health...and trying to put out crap that Pakistan has nukes targeted to America just isn't going to wash...It's Ridiculous...according to my "churchgoing" Christmas enthralled fellow North Carolinians. They are much more interested in SPORTS and the UPCOMING HOCKEY SEASON!

So...this great Fru Frah with the Think Tanks saying this "changes the Election" because the "Focus is back on WAR" is going to fall on deaf ears, IMHO...:shrug:

How do you think this will PLAY for the Election...in YOUR STATE?

1. it doesn't much mean anything to me, either...
my day was as normal as always. i'm assuming tomorrow will be as well. :shrug:

i doubt that a lot of people in my state even know who she is was.

3. Right now, most Americans are probably saying, "Who was she?"

6. Well, you do know Matt Cullen was knocked out last night against the Rangers.
And Williams is lost for the season. So we have to get a winger before the trade deadline and maybe an offensive defenseman. Oh wait, sorry, you said Hockey Season in Carolina (it's a disease we have that takes over).

8. Yep. But sadly, it's not denoted by changes in the weather anymore.

Now it's Hockey season. But when I was younger, it was denoted by changes in temperature. Thanks for the compliments to Lavi.

11. Absolutely we do.
I'm on a very blue block in a blue neighborhood in a blue city in a blue county and I wouldn't have it any other way! :hi:

A car on my block:
