Ok, so this morning I made my usual weekend trip to Wally World. It’s not too bad early on a Sunday morning. Now bear in mind, today is Nov. 2, just a day after Halloween…I enter the store to find all the Halloween spangle gone, replaced by Christmas trees and the like…but the most offensive of this was the music…Christmas music.  Now correct me if I’m wrong but I can remember a day when the holiday tunes didn’t start until after Thanksgiving…it’s freakin’ Halloween.  Is this like a black hole that’s just going to continue to expand until we hear and see this crap all year long?  Dear God!

Now don’t get me wrong, I love the holidays just as much as the next guy who hates human interaction and thinks everyone is an idiot.  It just seems that this time of year brings out the real morons.  The holiday season is supposed to be a time of good cheer, giving and kindness (or so I am told)…but to me it only brings the assholes in people out.  And when you combine the elements of morons/assholes, Walmart, Christmas music, and me all in the same place, at the same time…remember when Peter went nuclear on Heroes…yea…something like that…

I hate Walmart, and on a Saturday it’s somewhere between the 3rd and 4th Circle of Hell. I would rather shove a crochet hook in my eye than go there on a Saturday…and yet, somehow, I end up there every goddamn week. Years ago, when Wally-World came to my town I ventured in, what the hell right? And after seeing it’s unkempt wares and inept customer service I decided the trek to the mall was acceptable, then I discovered cheap diapers. Screw you Walmart…and so began my horrific addiction. And it’s not like it’s an addiction to something that makes you feel good like…say…sex…(good job Duchovney). No, this is an addiction of necessity…I need cheap diapers.

So today’s visit was simple, I just needed a piece of felt… .25 cents…easy right? Oh hell no. First the place was filled with idiots, my favorite kind of people, with their unruly children. God help me. At any rate, to make a long story short…I went in for a .25 cent piece of felt and spent 70 bucks! SCREW YOU WALMART!

Ok, so I had to watch the VP debate online because on the actual night of I had a horrific migraine.  I now know that someone was trying to tell me something.  Here have a migraine now, ’cause if you watch this thing you might have a stroke.  I’ve read a lot of the reviews by the so-called experts, and they all say the same thing, there was no “knock-out punch” by either side.  For me personally it changed my entire impression of the election, AND quite possibly how I am going to vote.  Let me start by saying Sarah Palin is a boob.  If I heard “joe six-pack” and “you betcha” one more time I was going to lose it.  Is she for real?

I don’t have any love for Obama, I mean lets be honest I have been quoted as saying he is the anti-christ.  However, watching Joe Biden, I felt confident in his ability as a VP, and as President should the need arise.  As my good friend Mrs. Echo so succinctly put it,  the vice president is a heartbeat away from the presidency, do you really want this woman running the country?  And considering John McCain’s age, and well let’s face it, he’s not looking to spry these days, it could be very likely.

Again Mrs. Echo made an excellent point, and all the candidates do this, stop trying to relate to me.  I don’t want someone like me to be president…dear god!  I may be cool, and an evil genius and everything…but for all intents and purposes I am a knucklehead…I want someone smarter than me to be president…someone much, much smarter…

When I started this blog, I did not want it to be political. I basically wanted to talk about my life, my family, my job, and idiots. How about we say this falls under the idiot category.

First of all I was pissed that GW interrupted my program…I only have so much tv time at night before I’m unconscious. Then he started babbling on about the economic crisis in this country…as soon as he said I feel your frustration I was like that’s it, you’d better put the game back on BL, cause this tv’s goin out the window. He feels our frustration? Does he really? Has he ever lived in a home that’s been or about to be foreclosed on? Has he ever had to cash in cans and bottles in order to buy diapers and formula. Ever scrimped and saved to buy a first home for a young family only to be taken in by so called “predatory lenders”. Ever had to choose between heating a home, eating, or taking necessary medication?

EDIT:  Just to be clear, I’m not talking out my ass when I say this stuff, I have dealt with some of these things, I have turned in cans to buy diapers, and had to decide whether to pay bills or buy heating oil.  End of edit…thank you.

He was up there practically wetting himself just waiting for his term to be up so this is someone else’s problem. Don’t tell us you feel our pain GW, (’cause lets be honest, that’s just bullshit) just do something about it, and guarantee that it will work.
