Rocking in Hakata

This is totally unrelated to Japan, but timely. I submitted my absentee ballot today. It’s weird to watch everyone count down to November 4th. It’s not just election day - it’s my birthday, too. And this year is pretty tense. Sigh. If you’re a person willing to be persuaded, go do your homework and make your own mind up. If you’d like to hear my own, personal rationale for my vote for the McCain-Palin ticket, feel free to email me. (deas at rocking in hakata dot com) Don’t bother if you just want to yell at me for being conservative. If you’re lazy, and more prone to watching videos and reading quick, oversimplistic summaries, try this post. It’s no substitute for getting really engaged for yourself, but it might prove useful. That’s all you’ll hear from me on this topic on my blog. In any event, just hold tight - the longest presidential election in history is almost over, and it’s about time.
