Dead people can vote in North Dakota
So apparently if you vote absentee, and then die before the election, most states throw out your vote. Twenty-seven ballots have been thrown out in Minnesota this year already. I’m not sure how I feel about this. Sure if a person died before the election they wouldn’t have been able to vote, but they weren’t dead when they voted. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth to know that people go through and throw out people’s votes. So if a soldier, fighting for our country, gets shot dead Monday, his vote no longer matters? That just doesn’t seem right to me. If a person voted legally, it should count in my book, and in North Dakota it does.

Rethinking my blog
So I had a little blog break for a couple of weeks. I took a quick trip to San Francisco and saw a Niners game. I had a great time, but didn’t see nearly enough of the city. I will have to go back.
While I was gone I rethough about my blog. I thought about giving it up, but I like to share things too much. I’m sure I would miss it. I’ve tried to quit in the past, and you know how well that works.
I’ve decided to turn my blog almost into a Tumblr like site. Instead of just going to Tumblr and not having control of my content, I rolled my own. My linkblog will now be rolled into my blog as regular posts. At first I thought it would be too much, but I usually only share a few links a day.
As usually, my blog is a work in progress and I do it mostly for my enjoyment. I hope you like it. If not, it is what it is.

Punchline’s Weezer Tribute
Punchline is one of the most underrated bands in my book. They are amazing, and yesterday they posted a video of them performing all Weezer songs. It’s pretty much the best thing I’ve seen in a long time.via stevepunchline on Youtube
