Check out folduscandidate.com and make your own candidate. I find it to be a humorous way to grab people’s attention about the upcoming election. If you make one, let me know! I may give it a go this weekend.
And don’t forget to register and vote on November 4th. This is going to be, as Senator Joe Biden said at last night’s VP debate, “the most important election you’ll ever vote in your entire life”.
Hope you guys have a good weekend! Until later.

Why does Merlin Mann absolutely rock? Because he does. Not to mention, he writes amazingly profound bits of advice such as the one above. It is concise, motivating while not being preachy, douchebaggy “motivational speak”, funny and Twitter friendly – under 140 characters!
I feel like just the first and last bits “Find Your Obsession / Get better” are the perfect pair to apply to life in general. I’m currently working on being more efficient, getting my priorities straight and having things set to prepare myself for a good future and an enjoyable today that allows for the madness that everyday life brings.
Watch the entire talk he gives on “How to Blog”. The man is quite the genius when it comes to getting things done.
More crafty programming coming after the break.
