On My Way

I'll be leaving the country in the morning (early!), to be gone until after the election, and I tell you, I couldn't be happier to put myself beyond a venue where I find myself listening to the Al Smith Dinner speeches three times in one night. I've done my bit and voted for the terrorist dude but I caution the complacent: John McCain has been funny and affable twice today: once at that dinner, and again on Letterman show (he needs to brush up on his pronunciation of "Zoarastrian," though). A few more days like this and people might actually begin to believe he is a nice guy.
