When you are up 8% in the polls, I don’t understand the decision to start pandering to the center and voting like a Republican.  Why not just stick with what is working?  Ah well, I suppose your advisers have more election experience than I do…

Since I got to Oak Ridge, I have started working out 3 days a week and running 3 days a week (and substantially improving my eating habits) in order to beat Giustino in the Marathon.  After a couple months of not training, I started mid June with a first run of an incredible 0.75 miles (in fairness, it is really hilly here).  Anyway, because I think that the threat of being publicly shamed might make me keep at it,  I will start posting my miles at the bottom of my blogs.  Starting today…

7/15/2008 – 8am – 3.1 miles (22.9 to go).

Perhaps I am just biased, but did anyone else think that was by far the most heartfelt/honest speech she gave in the whole primary season?  At least I hope it was sincere.  We shall see precious.

On another note, the thing I like most about linux is the great community and support and the friends I have made through Fedora and a few also now through Ubuntu.  However, every once in awhile, you run across a real jerk, and I simply don’t have the patience for these people… Totally counterproductive, Gah!
