Election Day = Leave Your TV Off For a Day
Nov 4th
Some Statesmen go to Congress and some go to hell.
It is the same thing, after all.-poet/journalist Eugene Field
If you ever wanted a good reason to enjoy the outdoors and stay away from all forms of media (ESPECIALLY TELEVISION) then election day is what you have been waiting for! I am not saying don’t vote. On the contrary, do vote. In fact walk to the polls! Enjoy being outside. Because all that awaits you at home on the television is electoral garbage. I never get so frustrated as watching this stuff. Regardless of who wins, the reporters sit there and guess, interview and ramble on for hours all while having the unrealistic expectation that I am entertained or interested.
I’m very concerned for the direction of the country…for who our leaders will be. But my life will be no better off for watching any of the major networks on election day. I will look tomorrow. See who won and go on with my life. Plus I’m playing volleyball tonight so why would I watch people who think they are important on TV when I can smash a volleyball at a high rate of speed?
Sorry… I know I have lost some of you with this. Just do yourself a favor and after you vote (if you haven’t already) do something awesome and don’t sit around watching election coverage. Let me know if you decided to do anything cool…and if you are still trying to catch up, then I am sure this will make sense.
