John MaCain's running mate

I actually considered voting Republican when I heard who John McCain's running mate is. I have since reconsidered, but wow. Watch to find out who.



PS sorry for the finale spoiler

Yayayay!

I'm done with finals!!!!! And tonight is the season finale of The Office. It's called "Goodbye Toby" and I am totally excited for it!!!

Here is the cold open for the episode tonight. I think it's my favorite from this season.




(sorry for the commercial)

The girl I want to be

• I want to be able to wear black and brown without feeling uncoordinated
• I want to walk with excellent posture
  
• I want to laugh loudly and not feel annoying
• I want to be closer to God
• I want to hug perfect strangers
• I want a job I love
• I want to love my overly emotional-ness
• I want to paint a masterpiece
• I want to be loud all the time
• I want to feel confident
• I want to be me
• I want to bake a cake and decorate it with rolled fondant
• I want to be proud of me
• I want to walk in the middle of the night and not feel scared
• I want to sleep on the beach
• I deserve to fall for a guy who makes me go weak at the knees
• I want to be ok with being anti-social and hide in my room
• I want to take great photos
  

I think I'm going to cry

Here's an op ed article from the New York Times about our energy crisis and here's and article from CNN about stopping testing beef from mad cow disease.

HOW STUPID DO YOU HAVE TO BE???? President Bush said that he would veto any bill that took tax credits away from the oil industry and give them to the sustainable energy industry.

"But here’s what’s scary: our problem is so much worse than you think. We have no energy strategy. If you are going to use tax policy to shape energy strategy then you want to raise taxes on the things you want to discourage — gasoline consumption and gas-guzzling cars — and you want to lower taxes on the things you want to encourage — new, renewable energy technologies. We are doing just the opposite."



There have been 3 reported cases of mad cow disease in the US since 2003. It is fatal to humans, but has the same symptoms as Alzheimer's so who knows how many cases in humans we've missed. If you don't think that's scary, think about this: Less than 1% of slaughtered cows get tested for mad cow disease, and the government wants to stop increased testing because "The agency argues that more widespread testing does not guarantee food safety and could result in a false positive that scares consumers." I don't know about you, but I would rather have more testing than not know at all.

If you like The Office...

In other news, CLASSES ARE OVER!!!

Now I just have finals... :(

But there is a new episode of the office tonight. YAY!

And I have my jury tomorrow, but I think I'm going to rock it so hard it's going to fall down! Whoot!

And this is also a good song.
