WoW

So... besides downloading a whole bunch of movies to entertain myself, I've also taken on the task of World of Warcraft. I must say, it has killed the past four hours or so quite brilliantly.

I don't really have much else to say. The funeral is tomorrow.. I'm glad it's finally coming around, I've been a bit upset and I find at least a little bit of closure attending and being around all of the people who loved Corey so much. It will be nice to see everybody, although it will be under fucked circumstances. I really hope I don't have to attend another funeral any time soon.

I'm going to try to get the new Russell Brand book either tonight or tomorrow, and hopefully that will also keep me occupied, as I'm planning on going back up to New York either tomorrow afternoon/night or Friday morning.

I guess I could touch on the topic of the midterm elections last night. Turns out that Pat Toomey pulled it out against Joe Sestak. I would also like to speculate that I am fully aware of the reason. This year, there were no Philadelphia-based candidates on the ballot. Essentially, the entire city of Philadelphia had very little reason to go out and vote at all. And, unfortunately, that worked very effectively against Joe, who would have basically taken all of the votes from the Philadelphia area, being almost completely blue. However, the turnout in the city was shoddy at best. There was really nothing that Mr. Sestak could do. Even if he would have put his heart and soul into campaigning the Philadelphia area, it still would not have propelled voting enough to achieve the desired outcome. I feel bad for my brother, the ultimate Democrat, but I am very proud of Pennsylvania at the moment. Republicans turned out, and we elected a Governor and Senator to represent the GOP in Washington. With Republicans taking control of the House (albeit not the Senate), let us hope that something can get done. However, we really need to get past the whole party nonsense. It's rather obvious that the left wing and right wing battle that has been raging for centuries is not helping our country to go in the right direction.

I'm hoping for the best, but I'll settle for just "okay" at this point. Anything is better than where we were at come yesterday at the polls. Our country needs to revamp, as we are no longer seen throughout the world as numero uno. Just recently, we were the backbone of the world, and now some other countries are beginning to see us as fading, as second rate. I refuse to agree, but acknowledge that we sure as hell have a lot of work ahead of us.

God Bless the U.S.A.!

In closing, as I posted on Facebook earlier, "Stay sexy, people!"
