Missouri, humidity, politics, bitches, and more!

I'm at my parents' house in Missouri right now, and they still use dial-up for their internet, which is making surfing for porn very, very frustrating. I'm not even sure if this entry will make my gay-ass blog.

I guess I'd forgotten exactly how hot and humid this state is until I arrived last night. This is even worse than North Carolina. Chicago's weather is weird...one day it'll be 90 degrees, and the next day it'll be 70. Personally, I prefer the 70 degree weather even though it's weird wearing a jacket in June and July.

Of course, the trip from Chicago to St. Louis via I-55 was fucking boring as hell. Two things that helped were the hip hop/R&B CDs my good friend, Tim, made for a bunch of people last winter. There's nothing like Beyonce, Jay-Z, R. Kelly, and more to help tolerate shitty Illinois. Thanks, Tim.

I'm glad Kerry has chosen John Edwards to be his running mate. I like Edwards, although I prefer that "crazy radical" Dennis Kucinich and the "ultra-leftist"Howard Dean over all others. Oh yeah, I also like Al Sharpton. I also would prefer Edwards as the presidential candidate and Kerry as the vice-presidential nominee, but this will have to do. I think Edwards was a much better choice than Gephardt, and this will only help Kerry. I'm not a huge fan of Kerry, but anything's better than Bush. I'd rather have someone with mental retardation as our president than Bush...but then again, Bush may very well be mentally retarded.

I've never blamed Nader for Bush winning in 2000 but rather the incompetence of the Democrats coupled with the Republicans cheating. I sort of wish Nader wouldn't run this time, but I personally am not mad at him for running nor will I blame him for Bush winning again should that happen. I do understand, however, the anger some feel about Nader running. But I think if Kerry, Edwards, and the Democrats do what they're supposed to do, they should win regardless of the 5% Nader holds in recent polls.

Despite Kerry not even being close to my ideal candidate, I'm voting for him for sure. I've been telling people that having Kerry as president is like being kicked in the balls, but Bush again in office is like having testicular cancer. I'd rather be kicked in the nuts than have testicular cancer.

When I started this stupid weblog, I was going to write whatever was on my mind, including politics. But expressing most of my political views is like preaching to the choir, at least to my loyal fanbase. Besides, I'm not a very good writer, and two of my friends, Tim and Fred, each do excellent jobs writing about things political. So this was a rare occasion. I promise I'll get back to writing about bitches and hoes in the near future. Good day.
