Just another day on the campaign trail in 1992.

I like to realize that my somewhat lazy summer days are not entirely wasted when I can write out what (little) good they have done me. So here goes:
  • Shining shoes is actually really fun and a good way to waste (whoops, I mean WORK) for a good half of an hour between customers.
  • The Death of Yugoslavia (thanks kottke!) is the most interesting film I have seen all summer. And I went to Sex and the City. On opening weekend.
  • Starbucks espresso is not as good as the rest of their coffee.
  • I look forward to seeing the Starbucks people more than I do most of my co-workers. Maybe I should work at Buckys?
  • I have a shoe problem. It's genetic.
  • A quick rosary in the morning starts my day off like a full-blown breakfast would, were I to ever eat breakfast.
  • Seeing people you barely know is EVEN MORE AWKWARD at the gym.
  • We have got ourselves a regular UN at The Job. My coworkers range from American to Mexican to Bosnian to German, to Brazilian to all sorts of unclassifiable Asian. And I live in the Pacific Northwest. Diversity for us is "I saw a black person today... on TV."

And finally, the kicker of ALL KICKERS! SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME IF THIS IS TRUE!

John McCain called his wife a cunt in 1992.

Oh, and check this out: (because I am a failure at life I can't get it to embed) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOl4iT46Eec Follow the link, it is well worth it.

The man doesn't say no! Maybe he is not dignifying it with a response because it is so preposterous. But if this has any grain of truth to it, if the man has ever called a woman that before in his life, he not only cannot be president because he obviously doesn't value or respect women, he deserves a SWIFT KICK IN THE PANTS. Someone better get to the bottom of this VERY soon, because this is one angry voter who wants answers.
