Voting Day

Okay it was actually yesterday. I had registered on the last possible day where I could still vote in Virginia's state and local elections. In a state that is fairly strongly republican, Tim Kaine (D) beat Jerry Kilgore (R) by a sizable margin. One of the oddest things I heard was Kilgore (Red Guy) harshly criticizing Kaine (Blue Guy) for not being a proponent of the death penalty, which was a result of Kaine's religious beliefs (he's catholic). I thought it odd to hear of a republican attack a democrat for their religious beliefs.

FYI, some web sites such as the washingtonpost.com require to register to read articles and ask all sorts of personal info from you when you register. If you'd like to avoid this, just dump the URL in bugmenot.com and it will provide you with registration info for the site, thus keeping you from having to dish out your personal information to sites that really don't need to know that info in the first place. Stick it to the man.
