Taking a little break. Will return sooner or later, most likely after Top 10 season (god, I hate lists). Maybe sooner. Maybe later. Read smart things and listen to good music while I'm gone.
To our friends around the world: we're sorry. And let us know if you have a couch we can crash on for a while. Would four years be too long?
To the 48%* of the 18-29 year old demographic that chose not to vote (at least according to exit polls I saw last night -- the same percentage that chose not to vote in the 2000 election), please go take a job at Wal-Mart, catch some disease that your nonexistent health insurance does not cover, and die.

*Note: this figure has been corrected. I initially was led to believe that only 17% of eligible voters in the youngest demographic had voted, but I was mistaken: that was the percentage of the total vote contributed by the youth demo, give or take a point. See this article for more detail. Thanks to Randy Jones for setting me straight.
