Election Day

Hello all! Today was election day, and actually proved to be quite interesting. It turns out that somehow someway, I am registered to vote here in Texas. Even after my time away, I am still permited to voice my opinion at the polls even if I must submit a Tennessee driver's license as proof of my identity. Today for the first time, I voted proudly as a Texan. I believe that I am still registered to vote in the state of Tennessee as well. However, I must regretfully inform you that I wasn't able to uphold my civic duties in the Volunteer State.

That brings me to my next thought of the day. The Kinky Friedman sign you see in the picture is quite a hot item. There are two polling places within a block of where I live. One is a school and the other is a church. Between the two there were three of these good looking signs. They are good looking and they stand out. Who uses hot pink and yellow in campaign signs? This guy does. In a sea of red, white, and blue the graphic art definately grabs your attention. If I had shown you this picture and simply said "One of these things is not like the other, one of things is not the same." You'd identify the Kinky sign as the aboration in a heartbeat. Maybe the sign put out by Mr. Friedman was a little too cool. As I mentioned earlier, there were three of these signs put up along side about 150 other pieces of politcal yard art. At least as I walked into the polling place there were three signs. As I left the polling station and recounted, I noticed only two signs remained. A little later in the afternoon the very sign pictured above had vanished as well. Two Kinky Friedman signs were stolen! No other signs were touched! What does this mean? Were Kinky supporters stealing signs and in fact damaging their candidate? Were the Kinky signs just too damn cool to be publicly displayed? Is there someone out there who doesn't like Jewish Cowboys? Ironically the two signs that were stolen were on the church lawn and the sign at the school remained in place until the polls closed. Was this a conspiricy of the religious right against the Jews? Did the churchgoers fell threatened by Kinky's promises of reforming marijuana laws? If I had to say, there is no conspiracy or plot against the Jews. That is just one cool ass sign! Holla'
