"Vote Your Conscience!"

Okay, I'm breaking my calm silence about the election, thanks to this awesome video. I'm still not coming out and saying "vote Republican" or "vote Democrat." At this point, the ballot I cast will have more than one of each party on there, and possibly an independent and a Constitution Party candidate.

But I think anyone with a pulse that has paid even a little bit of attention to the issues knows WHO is on WHICH side of the issues that matter. I don't love either presidential candidate... but I think one leaves little guess work on being truthful while the other comes off as a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Open to your thoughts. Comment if you want to, but please VOTE on November 4th for sure! And do what these folks suggest... really consider the issues you are voting for or against when you cast your ballot!

Enough already!

I was having a conversation recently with a co-worker. Among the topics of our brief discussion were the economy, the lacking choice of candidates in the presidential election, the poor health of the banking industry, and the imminent changes within our own realm that have been announced but not detailed yet.

He told me, "One positive thing is that I'm losing weight! I'm just not eating as much because my stomach is in knots over it all."

My conclusion is that I have the opposite problem: I eat when I get stressed. I get odd cravings too, mainly for sugary, processed, unhealthy JUNK. Ahhhhh!!! This sucks! I've been working too hard for too long to get into good physical shape and to stay that way.

Anyone have any secrets about controlling such a thing?
