So I have always been interested in politics as a system of control, but have always felt like I was above the squabble of American politics in a way. I never thought that I would ever give a fuck who was president, until Obama. The guy honestly gives me goosebumps (in a good way) when he speaks. He hasn’t said how yet, but he’s said what he wants, and so far I agree. I can’t describe how remarkable that is for me. I’m willing to give the man a try, which is a lot more than I can say for any other presidential nominee ever. I hated Clinton and I hated Kerry, I didn’t trust either of them from the beginning, but for some reason I totally believe that Barack will change the day to day life of everyone in this fucked up country of ours in a positive way.

I am not only going to register to vote this year, I am actually going to vote.

I’ve watched almost an hour of coverage so far this time, I probably wouldn’t have seen any of it, but then I found out that BADMITTEN (Badminton) IS AN OLYMPIC SPORT!!! Also, we found out last week that we have cable and didn’t know it.

But now I think I’m done this time around. I got sucked into the badmitten and ended up watching swimming for a while and volleyball and women’s softball (which was actually kind of cool, but the commercials just kill my attention span for it).

So for the rest of these games I’m going to following what’s going on by how loudly the neighbors in the house behind our place clap and yell at the TV when someone does something good.

I’ve started making some Dark Tower related Photoshop art. Right now I’m working on a few pieces for it, and I have 25-30 more that I’d like to do. Its another one of those long term project. I gotta find models to take pics of and find some nice looking fake 6-shooters.

They still need tweaking. I might have to use different doors for all of them, and the text needs to show through more, but they’re in a place now that I don’t mind showing them to other people.

More to follow.
