Dorothy Knows How I Feel

Dorothy over at "Cat and Girl" captures the feeling I was trying to get across in my last post.

Oh yeah, there was an election this week.

President-elect Barack Obama fist-bumping a five-year-old.

I really don't want to say anything cynical about the guy before he's even in office, so let's just enjoy the photo.

Here Comes the Primary

When it comes to politics, I'm usually pretty apathetic. So much so that, to paraphrase Terry Pratchett, I sometimes suspect I'm arriving from the other direction as an activist. Anyway, the "Potomac Primary" (Washington DC, Virginia, and Maryland) is coming up next Tuesday and I normally wouldn't bother even thinking about it except that it's a good excuse to post this little guy. I actually drew him a few years ago, while running sound for a very politically-active production that we were doing in Baltimore. Enjoy.
