election day

My mailboxes are full of junk, my phone is ringing too often. All this bullshit is from two parties that don't represent me. I voted, in most cases for the lesser of two evils. Unfortunately we don't have viable third parties in this country because the two parties that have power don't allow ballot access, the ability to participate in debates, and because our system of government is for the promotion of consumerism and not for sustainable life on this planet.

Voting is important but voting has become an exercise in futility as we get corporate hacks that once gaining office spend their time working on staying in office. We will never see reforms because the powers than be are not willing to compromise.

It is getting so bad (and it will get a lot worse) from this point forward I'm removing myself from all political mailing lists and going Green. Totally Green... it is the only political party that represents my ideals.

Got to now change my voter registration info...

outside

Right now I am sitting on the deck and the temp is 71 degrees, sunny with a slight breeze. Such is life in Southern California.
