So, now people are stealing Obama signs out of front yards. Sign stealing. Sign stealing? Do you think that stealing a sign is going to stop somebody from supporting Obama? Do you think it will stop them from telling other people that they support Obama? Or that a sign is negatively or positively influencing that one indecisive git who can't seem to make a decision after TWO YEARS? Clearly if I can't decide on my own brain power, if Joanne Six Pack has a sign in her yard, I'll vote like her because we're cool and I'm so easily influenced.

But, back to the sing stealing, because I guarantee that if you take two signs, ten more will pop up. Like rabbits that way. There'll probably be stickers too next time, because now you pissed somebody off. And you know what else? When they bought that stuff that you stole, it was probably part of a donation to the Obama/Biden campaign, so really, now they they've had to buy more, on your behalf, so really *you* just donated to the campaign.

So, thanks.

And Vote Obama in 2008.

In less irate news, Tony Bourdain is visiting Ireland on my telly and it's like sex for my ears!

My mom was (and still is) big on politics and getting involved. During the time of the Chicago machine where it was Daley Sr. who was mayor for years upon years (when the motto was something about "voting is so nice, try it twice") she was campaigning for a democratic rival. As she went down the street putting up signs for her candidate...a Daley guy was following her and tearing them down.

Didn't stop mom. She yelled at him and kept putting up signs, hoping he'd tire.

Sign stealing is a loooong tradition. An irritating one.

So...yes, as two signs disappear ten will appear. Heh.
