Your Feedback is Important to Us...

I'm streaming C-SPAN on my computer while I work so that I can listen to/watch the DNC roll call. So I thought I'd take a poll.


Geek?

__YES __ NO


It's one of my favorite parts. I love all the pomp and circumstance - "I Jimmyjoe Hooter, representing the fine delegates from the birthplace of Davy Crockett, Andrew Jackson and Minnie Pearl; the home of the Great Smokey Mountains and Jack Daniels Whiskey; symbolized by the iris, the poplar tree and the Power T, do hereby cast our 85 votes from the three grand divisions of the great Volunteer State of Tenneessee... for Barack Obama!"

OK, so it's not EXACTLY like that. But I'm not far off. How can you not get excited? Normally I get to watch this pagentry from the comfort of my own home while I clean out closets or balance my checkbook, but they've moved it earlier in the day because of the potential Hillary drama.

What's a geek to do?

That is geeky:) I didn't watch it. I haven't watched any of it. I think I need a break from politics.
