Out with the old

I finally completed my weeks of agonizing and price comparing and settled on a new cell phone. My phone has been growing increasingly fickle and it has none of the cool features the kids are raving about. I bought a Sony Ericsson T616 from Amazon for -$75. Pretty sweet that my first three months of service will be covered by the "cost" of the phone. The phone is bluetooth enabled, which leaves the potential for all kinds of nerdy mischief. Goodie.

I also filled out my DC voter registration card today, so I can vote in our "primary" on Jan. 13. Because the Democratic party has a deal with New Hampshire and Iowa, they have managed to subvert the electoral process in DC (nothing new), and coerce most of the candidates off the ballot. See for yourself. I'll probably vote for Sharpton, though this could be Lyndon Larouche's year.

Amusing to me is the fact that nowhere on the DC Board of Election and Ethics website is the address to return my completed voter registration form. And of course, it isn't on the form either. There are even two conflicting addresses on several webpages. Hopefully this one will work. Of course, if it doesn't, who cares, it's not like I'm represented (which is only fair, since I'm not paying taxes).
