First Presidential Debate Live Blog

Well it seems McCain isn’t going to puss-out and the first U.S. Presidential Debate of 2008 is going to happen. Seeing as I’m staying up to watch it I figured I’d try one of these fancy Live Blog things. It’ll be interesting to see how incoherent it gets as I get increasingly tired/drunk.

Dum-diddle-um-diddle-um… Battery!

Whilst myself and my buddy enjoy making music, we are afflicted by the problem that, while we can do the rest, neither of us can sing. These guys however seem to have the opposite problem.

Why I hate religion #1

Note: These are not in order of hatred, but as and when I find more reasons.

The shoes are dead. Long live the shoes

Everyone has a pair of truly comfy shoes. Those shoes that you wear all the time that have taken the exact contours of each foot. They are there welcoming you each morning; you haven’t undone/redone the laces in years.
