I should have taken more photos from that Ted & Wally's show which my calculus teacher's band played. Turns out we have a ton of friends in common. It was a good turn out and Bryan Byrd, Joe Knapp, Andy Berkeley, and a ton of others showed up. We talked about Dewey Mansion and Joe Knapp said it's rubble. Need to take a pic and drink a 40 oh-zee in its memory.

Ayana pulled me through the crowd right up to the front and danced to all the band's stuff.

We all know the Republican candidates are morons, but reading all this Rick Santorum stuff. I already didn't like him from the Senate because of his stupid conservative, ridiculous Christian view and influence. But everything he expects like home schooling, one working parent and the other a stay-at-home mother....who can afford to live in today's world with one income and with his stand on other stuff you would be paying out of pocket for way unaffordable health care and shit that's way too unrealistic.

I'm reading a book now called Taliban by Ahmed Rashid, which came out in 2000 based on his past 25 or so years reporting in that area from before the Soviets even tried to invade. It entails how the past history in the area and leading up to the Taliban takeover and somewhat explains their, hesitant acceptance of their rule and how they immediately banned girls and women from it all and took this peaceful, tolerant religion and turned it into this violent, militant, totatlly ideological fundamentalist sect and whey they oppress women, and it's a lot of what the conservative Christians and almost verbatim what Rick Santorum's angling towards. Replace his view of conservative Christianity with that completetly militant, un-Islamic ideology of the Taliban and you can hardly tell them apart.

Not to mention, all these religious leaders coming in about the first amendment being torn apart by the Obama administration because of the contraceptive thing (which we could debate that on all it's hypocracy), the intention of the Framers was to not have a religion running the country - despite the conservatives trying to say that separation of church and state isn't what it's being portrayed as.
