Subject: Lateness, voting, and movies
In reply to: Surf 's message, "Geesh Harry, we don't hear from you for 3 years and youk come back to pick on Vince? Just ignore the first paragraph and his post does make a good point. BTW, we tried the movie thing once, the popcorn stuck in our teeth gave us away." on 16:44:05 05/01/03 Thu

No no no - I'm not picking on Vince. I don't even know the gentleman. However, it's much too common for people to use any reason to be late - or to not even show up - for the responsibilities of work. Also, polls are open from early morning to evening. People can vote and still put in a full day or work.

Otherwise, sure his post makes a good point. But do you know anybody who's AGAINST voting (besides Saddam)? Anyway, a get-out-and-vote comment from Florida is kind of ironic. How many people's votes in that state DIDN'T count in the last Presidential election?

It is, though, nice to be back. For the last three years, I've been in Iraq looking for weapons of mass destruction. And, even though I haven't found them yet, I'm still looking and I will find them - even if I have to put them there myself. Oh well, I gotta go now. It's time to go to work...but, then again, Lizzie Maguire is playing at the multiplex.

[> [> [> [> Just so ya know, I work 2 jobs, 1 from 5 to 10pm, and the other from 11pm to 7am. So, I sleep days. I had meant to wake up early that day to have time to vote, but slept right through the early alarm. And since the first job is a 45-minute drive from home, it was either skip voting and be late anyway, or vote and be a little later. Maybe it ain't the best work ethic, but I made my choice.
