Voting —
I just did my early voting this morning. You'd think, with it being the last day for early voting, there'd be long lines. But no, I was pretty much alone in there. Me and a room full of elderly volunteers. It took no time at all.
I was given a huge paper ballot, which is nice. No touch-screen, that's good. But at the end, I fed my ballot into a machine, and the old lady told me to watch the number on the screen tick up by one. "There! You voted!" she said. "You saw it happen!" Really? What did I see? (And as I left, the old guy at the exit door was telling his fellow volunteers how you can't trust these young people with backpacks 'cause they all have bombs. [I did NOT have a backpack, btw.])
I absolutely understand why so many people don't vote. All the candidates are dicks and idiots, IF you even know who they are. I'm always stuck voting for the guy who's NOT a Republican and NOT a teabag independent... which pretty much means Democrat. *sigh*
I find it alarming how so many otherwise liberal people want to pass laws making non-voting illegal. Do they REALLY think that will solve the problem? That's how conservatives think. You don't like what other people are doing? Pass a law! MAKE them do it YOUR way! (It's interesting the number and variety of nations that have mandatory voting. They're not better for it.)
There are so many bad laws that create more problems than they solve. The whole drug war thing is the perfect example. When these laws are passed, there is NO thought given to how they will be enforced, who will enforce them and what the fallout will be. Seriously, how would you propose we punish non-voters? Fines? Loss of rights? Prison?
If you're one of those who want to make voting mandatory, be honest with yourself: the reason you're unhappy is because your favorite candidates aren't getting elected. Do you REALLY believe that MAKING people vote will magically drive your fellow liberals out of the woodwork? DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT??
Forced voting might increase the numbers, but it won't change the percentages at all. And it certainly won't make people vote smarter. The average person votes with his/her butthole, not his/her brain. NOTHING will change that.
The fact is, we're already paying the price for not voting. We're getting what we deserve. If anything should be done at all, I'd say make the consequences more immediate. When a majority doesn't vote, eliminate that office until the next vote. People don't cast a vote for president, there IS no president until the people decide there needs to be. You don't WANT government, you GET no government. Make the non-votes count.

If there's one thing I love, it's big boobs. But if there's another thing I love, it's killer Conan art! I stumbled across this awesome piece of work by artist, Dan Hipp, an illustrator with several comics and graphic novels under his belt and his unique look, with his chunky shading, sharp angles and inspired color schemes deserve a solid shout out here on the blog.

Hail fellow barbarians and savages! It's really great to see the CROM! blog back to it's former self (and then some) with the return of Cromsblood and the addition of our newest blogging brother, Atom Kid.

A blogger called "Banjin" (蛮人), which means "barbarian" in Japanese, set me a link to his website, which is all devoted our favorite sword-swinger Conan!

Mila Kunis talks about lsbian kissing with Natalie Portman
Talk about kissing between Mila Kumis with Natalie Portman
Beautiful star of Black Swan Mila Kunis talks about working with Natalie Portman. But even her co-star Vincent Cassel can't resist the oppotunity to ask her what it was like kissing Natalie during the film's passionate lovemaking scenes between the two girls. Clearly embarassed Mila Kunis struggles to maintain her composure. Although who can blame her for being a bit hot and bothered thinking about it.
Mila Kunis was talking at the London Film festival at a press conference ahead of the film's UK red carpet premiere in Leicester Square.
As LeicesterSquareTV described on below video
Yeah Mila, tell us more about the kissing !!
I'm so in love with Mila. Can't wait to see this movie!

My Desk —
Here's what I'm doing for a "desk" at the moment. Corner of the kitchen counter and a storage bin. My laptop is at the end of all those cables, plugged into the monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc.
