That's Right...Ice...Man...I am dangerous.

So I realized in between studying German, listening to Paul McCartney and the Wings, and listening to the Vice Presidential debate that I am a mere 6 days away from setting off to Prague. Absolutely insane.

I'm usually not the one to have a list of errands to get accomplished. I'm not exactly a wait till the last minute guy. More like a wait until the last 30 seconds kind of guy. But I've had so much shit to do these last couple days as I get ready to go that I'd thought I'd keep track of them. Yesterday, I bought some clothes (which I haven't done in close to 2 years), as well as got some important documents notarized. Finally, I managed to register to vote and send out for an absentee ballot which is going to get sent to Prague.

The way this presidential election has been shaping up, I'm thinking I'm rather glad I'm going to be in Europe for a while. The fact that this race, in effect, has been going on since 2006 is pretty pathetic. Most of the media outlets either have a hard on for one person or the other. Case in point, I watched the debate on CNN tonight. They've got their legion of "analysts" with their little CNN labtops, declaring Joe Biden to be the winner. I flip on to see what FOX News is saying, and people on there are overwhelmingly declaring Sarah Palin the winner.

Sometimes I think 24 hour news could possibly be the worst thing to happen to this country.

btw, in case you haven't heard it the first 240,000 times it's been repeated, John McCain is a Maverick. Does that make Barack Obama Iceman? I'd go with Hollywood.
