Decisions, decisions

"minnehaha has a poll up at her LiveJournal, and is looking for exposure outside of her Friends List. She's trying to figure out if there really are very few undecided voters or if it's just their Friends List, so they've asked other people to spread the poll to their Friends Lists and invite other people to link to it as well to get a broader sample.
"therefore, for your dining and polling pleasure:
"http://www.livejournal.com/poll/?id=1259967
"(there is an "i do not have voting rights in the US" option, for those non-USAns who want to stand up and be counted.)"
I'm something like 99 94/100% decided myself. I know absolutely who I am not voting for, and I'm all but certain that I know who I am voting for in this year's Presidential campaign. If the election were held today, I know absolutely who I would vote for, albeit on a less informed basis than I expect to be come November 4th. So I'm reading, watching, listening, and learning more between now and then. That's the plan, anyway.

I won Tom!
Sep. 17th, 2008 05:53 pmHe's a piper's son, doncha know? This particular Tom has been running since my days when my 85-year-old father was running around his grandfather's tag factory where Tom was made.
One of the hardest things about being deeply in debt is allowing myself to buy anything that isn't an absolute necessity. Twinzy Toys clearly aren't necessities, and if they start showing up more often I expect I'll opt to collect photos only. But for right now, bidding on him was the right choice for me, and I'm glad my bid proved to be the winning one!

| Tom, Tom the piper's son This is the first Twinzy Toy I've won in standard, online eBay auction. (Skater Doll came from a life auction linked to eBay.) You can see the rip in the seam on top of his head. He looks like the same era and material as Skater Doll, and he has the same Twinzy Toy logo on his back as Skater Doll has on his leg.
