Election Pulse
http://ufl.facebook.com/election_pulse.p...
I found this as the only wall posting for Connie Mack:
I am an avid supporter of Connie Mack and encourage everyone to vote for him this November. I know I will. And I'm not just some random endorsement either. Connie's Democratic opponent is my dad and I know exactly how sorry we will all be unless Connie Mack is our US Representative.
Is that for real? Any nerd bigger than I know if Robert Neeld Jr actually has a son named Brandon from Cape Coral who attends FSU?
It's quite an interesting tool, election pulse, but I question the accuracy of a poll where the only measurement is who is friends with the candidate (can we say margin of error?).
I had two exams yesterday which prevented me from posting, and neither went as well as planned. Oh well.
From Motivateus.com,
"You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully."
-Tony Robbins. Tony Robbins??
Unfortunately I can't find yesteday's quote, and they only update Monday-Friday, so no motivational quotes this weekend.
On the whole Subway tangent from the other day, I noticed on the catering portion of the menu at the Subway in the Union that prices start at $9 a foot. $9 a foot? Couldn't I just buy many, many one foot subs for much cheaper? Obviously I was wrong that someone their studied Management and thus tried to make things efficient.
Also, am I the only one that actually thinks the Cardinals will win the WS? I am rooting for the Tigers of course, but I think the Cardinals are a better (and more experienced) team and will win in 6 games. MVP? Pujols, you guessed it.
Back to politics. Is it just me, or when you are watching campaign ads on tv, with one eye, while on facebook, Charlie Crist and Jim Davis could be EASILY be confused for one another?
Ok, WOW, as I am writing this, I surf over to PBS because I know that Tavis Smiley is on (how sad, I know) and the guest looks EXACTLY like the long-haired guy who plays the guitar at Turlington. I really, really thought it was him. Apparently though it was Danny Mann. So, I of course google him, thinking that might be the same guy. But alas, they are different. If anyone could be identical twins separated at birth though, it would be those two. He's a nice guy. If you've ever done an SG campaign, then you know who I am talking about. If only everyone was like this guy, the world would be a better place.
Ahh PBS. Make a difference day is in 8 hours, so I am going to get some sleep. Hope to see you out there.
