As a California resident that voted for Kerry, I would like to say a couple things as my last post on the election.

First, congratulations to President Bush.  While I was more anti-Bush than pro-Kerry, he did win the election fair and square and Kerry did the right thing by conceding the election when he did.  There was no sense in dragging out the counting and slapping democracy in the face yet again.

Second, I'm really starting to see some equality flaws in the electoral college system.  Even if Kerry had won the election, it seems stupid that where you live determines how much your vote is worth.  Let every vote be counted yes, but let's pay special attention to the votes from these few states because they are worth the most electoral votes.

Shame on the Democratic party leaders.  Out of all the resources we had to pull from, John Kerry was the best we could come up with?  Yes, I voted for him, but it was a "lesser of two evils" vote IMO.  As the news has been saying, people preferred the devil that they know...

I am proud to see that so many people hit the polls.  Our Republic wouldn't work without people doing their civic duties.

And finally, now that the Republicans have majority control in the Legislative and Executive branches, when the current government screws up the Republicans won't be able to pass the buck and blame the Democrats anymore.  Let's hope Bush can accomplish some "tangible" good for the country in the next four years...
Still in the collecting parts and ideas phase of cabinet building.

Finallly, now we can get back to Hulkster's boob question?  What size to you prefer?  Small, medium or large?

LARGE  !!!! LARGE !!!! LARGE !!!!

then I like a little

MEDIUM !!!! MEDIUM !!!! MEDIUM !!!!

and then, when all else fails

SMALL !!!! SMALL !!!! SMALL !!!

(I think that from this point forward, all wars should be fought with naked large breasted women and ALOT of baby oil on pay-per-view !!!)  ;D

I think this is called the Lingere Bowl that takes place during the Super Bowl halftime.

Think about it:
- We're not landlocked (Ocean access via both Great Lakes & Mississippi River)
Go drown the Vikings in either one - I'll leave that choice up to you

Quote
We produce our own food (in surplus)
And the Vikings seem not to like it, as they have a propensity for choking

Quote
We run our cars on our own "corn gas"
The Vikings (Randy Moss in particular) are so full of crap you could probably skip the Ethanol and go with their "natural gas"

Quote
We're not overcrowded
That's cuz no one wants to come there to see the Vikings

Quote
We have great natural resources
Elk and Moose?  Or as they're known here in WI, a Vikings girlfriend....you can have 'em

Quote
We already have a tremendous amout of international exports
I hadn't heard you were shipping any Vikings players overseas....can't stand 'em yerselves, hey?

Quote
What else does a country need?  We're nearly self-sufficient.  Nothing else, we can always merge with Canada. ;)
What else?  You could use a former fake wrestler as a Governor ;)  You certainly could merge with Canada....just one more thing to dislike about Canada ;)

Hey, I've just gotta ask.....how can we miss you if you won't go away? ;)

Careful with the Viking comments... the girlie & I are season ticket holders.  So we can watch Green Bay games  And we don't appreciate anyone ripping on the vikings.  Unless they're playing GB

You're a closet Viking-phobe!

HA!  

Why don't they show NFL games on TV in Minnesota?

Because then they'll want a Pro team too!   ;D

p.s. Is it just me, or is the Humphrey Dome or whatever it's called a bit....."plastic-feeling"?

I WAAAAAAAAY prefer Lambeau, although I haven't been since they remodeled!  If they pull out this season, I've got dibs to a playoff game there.  

The more you profess your love for the Pack, the more liberal I become by choosing to not ask you to move to France or Canada

 :-\  being that I lived in Rochester Mn for about 4 years in the mid 80's if you choose to leave the union be my guest.  You can take the mosquitoes, Jesse Ventura and the Vikings with you.  Oh I should add my ex-wife also  (take my wife.......please).  
Congratulations Mr Bush........the majority is with you and we look forward to a brighter future.

The mosquitoes are terrible.  Rochester is kind of "in the woods".  There's a couple good dirt bike tracks now but what was there in the 80's?

the Clinic.......the mall (remember it was the 80's) and one very good public course and and excellent private course.  I worked servicing Apple IIe's at the Clinic.  Got really drunk at a Christmas Party at the Mayo home......my brother in law was (still is) a very respected doctor at the clinic.

The Majority of American Voters think that they have a batter chance of things being better 4 years from now with Bush than with Kerry.

That's the weird thing, and really illustrates how abominable a candidate Kerry was.  Well over half of Americans have and still poll (and exit polled even) that they believe America is on the wrong track.  But in spite of believeing we are/have been on the wrong track they still put the conductor back on the engine (I hope that metaphor works....I think that's how trains operate  ;D )

The majority of Americans apparently believe that we will, in fact, be worse off in 4 years.  They didn't like Kerry, though, and apparently decided they'd rather keep heading down the wrong track than put that pansy ass in the white house.
