Why isn't election day a national holiday?
This seems like a no-brainer.
Gov’t offices can’t be closed on that day?

Florida Republican
Governor Charlie Crist extended voting hours in Florida to give working people a chance to vote.
At a hastily arranged news conference, Crist said the right to vote is sacred and that “many have fought and died for this right.” He said he consulted a leading Democratic legislator, Rep. Dan Gelber of Miami Beach, before issuing his order, and that Gelber knew of a similar order issued by Gov. Jeb Bush in 2002 that dealt with helping voters deal with new equipment.
As to the perception that more early voting helps Democrats, Crist said: “This is not a political decision. This is a people decision.”
Apparently Florida Republicans could care less about Joe The “___insert republican pander point here_______”

Crist has been a pretty decent Gov so far. Way better than Jeb was. The off-shore drilling flip-flop he did worries me though.

Cutest thing ever.
Kids on MarriageA group of young childen were asked about marriage…
HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY?
You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.
- Alan, age 10No person really decides before they grow up who they’re going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you’re stuck with.
- Kirsten, age 10WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?
Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then.
- Camille, age 10No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married.
- Freddie, age 6HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?
You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids.
- Derrick, age 8WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?
Both don’t want any more kids.
- Lori, age 8WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?
Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough.
- Linette, age 8On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.
- Martin, age 10WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR?
I’d run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns.
- Craig, age 9WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?
When they’re rich.
- Pam, age 7The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn’t want to mess with that.
- Curt, age 7The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It’s the right thing to do.
- Howard, age 8IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?
I don’t know which is better, but I’ll tell you one thing. I’m never going to have sex with my wife. I don’t want to be all grossed out.
- Theodore, age 8It’s better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.
- Anita, age 9HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN’T GET MARRIED?
There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn’t there?
- Kelvin, age 8HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?
Tell your wife that she looks pretty even if she looks like a truck.
- Rick, age 10
Some of these kids are pretty smart. Ha ha.
