All things serve the Beam
I went into the fire station, chatted with the "voting ladies" for a minute (they are all my neighbors), had a cup of coffee and a doughnut. There is never a line. The "check in" process involves one of them saying, "Hi, Shanna. How are the dogs?"
We don't have electronic anything. LOL. We mark little circles with a pencil and toss the paper in a box.
Life in a very small town ...
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
I AM standing up
They let us leave work early if we hadn't voted yet, so I did. I wanted to vote before work, but the line @ 7:30 a.m. was half a block long and growing.
Instead, I got there around 5:00 p.m. No line, and I got to use the new touch-screen voting machine - we had a choice. It was fun!
I could tell I just beat the after-work voters. When I left, they were starting to get REALLY busy! This is exciting!
No flirting at my polling place, tho. I'm jealous, RICHARD!
