My God, I want to remake this and make it worse and more awkward and nerdy. You know, add a random shot of grandma waving at the camera and throwing a toy for a dog and it’s gold.

Before:
Kevin was born on the mossy hills of Scotland and lived for a while in West Lothian before the mores of pre-Thatcher and REALLY pre-Oasis Great Britain sent his family across the ocean to North America. They moved here and there and Kevin did the same when he was old enough. Now he lives in London with his family and a Dog.
Kevin Wardrop is an amateur writer, amateur photographer and professional pain in the ass. He has worked in the PC support business for most of his adult life and has been accustomed to simply answering technical questions as a matter of fiat, it was his career choice after all. Now he herds cats and puppies for a living as well as babysitting the web enterprises at the heart of western industry.
You know, if I wasn’t convinced that the majority of people would totally fail to comprehend it, I’d require kids in the states to read “It Can’t Happen Here”
When fascism comes to America, it will come wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross.
I see no cross but that flag is right there.
These guys are just thugs. Which is kind of what I expect from Ron Paul supporters most of the time. Given all the RP spam on you tube these days; it’s hard to imagine that his supporters are anything close to rational.

Spoke with a representative of JobConnect (a YMCA program). We discussed cutting down my Resume and altering perceptions of my address for persons outside of my area.

I found a spelling error in my cover letter today. Oh well, I need to get these looked at by an editor.

Money line, "Flood the Catacombs!"
I suppose one might credit Doonesbury for a large chunk of my initial understanding of American politics (as I didn't really pay much attention to American news until I started caring that Bill Clinton was the president as he was the coolest politician who ever appeared on the Arsenio Hall show) [Woof Woof Woof]
I still like Clinton (less and less every year, but he seems to slide further and further to the right all the time) I dislike Hilary as she seems to dislike all the stuff I like (Video Games, Violent Movies, Reading, Free Thought)
I'm a Mike Gravel booster as of right now, but we'll see whom I support after the shakedowns over the next few months. If not Gravel, I'm hoping for Obama, whom appears to be just the right age to really provide energetic leadership to the US.
However, if he doesn't produce something like this:
Then all bets are off….

Share your favorite holiday song.
This is really a toss-up, but both involve artists from Great Britain:
Little Drummer Boy / Peace on Earth; as sung by Bing and Bowie. This one always reminds me of my early Christmases in North America, and the great surprises and excitement that accompanied those Christmas mornings.
Band Aid – Do They Know it's Christmas? "Feed the Wooooo-ooorld, Let them know it's Christmas Time" The conceit is strange, especially with Islam being such a huge faith in the affected areas at the time, but their hearts were in the right place. Nowadays I much more of a cynic about such affairs, but I still think fondly of all the little pyramids of pennies I gave for the babies in Africa who needed them more than I needed a new GiJoe.
