The NNGO US Presidential Poll!

Anto and I were watching the coverage last night online and he noticed that MSN had a poll up about whether you voted. The options were something like "Yes, I voted for Obama," "Yes, I voted for Romney," "I'm haven't voted yet but I will," "I'm not voting," and "Not sure." By the time I went to bed, there were a couple thousand "Not sure."

So our question is, how are you not sure if you voted or not?

It was probably the people in Colorado who smoked themselves stupid after finding out it was legal

In reality though, this will mean nothing because of federal laws that aren't changing anytime soon. It's definitely a step in that direction, but don't buy your tickets to Colorado.

I almost died reading this!!

I still haven't heard who won Florida yet..anyone know?

I am counting on it happening soon in Washington. That will make Thanksgiving and Christmas at the parents all the more fun!

I think I am most irritated that Oregon didn't pass it because we had other measures on the ballot regarding school funding, etc. Hmm, here is a picture perfect way to make revenue (and lots of it, *cough, cough*) and we say no. Dumb.

Depends if you can do math or not I think...

Well I mean, it seems like you can now light up in your home or on your street without risk of an citation.

Slightly on the same topic, I had to laugh when I read this in the New Scientist, its about the Ig Nobel awards (for epic fails in science) and this is the prize that had me laughing:

"... the Ig Nobel literature gong honoured bureaucratic skills polished to perfection at the US Government Accountability Office, which in May produced what the Ig Nobel committee describes as "a report about reports about reports that recommends the preparation of a report about the report about reports about reports". At only 32 pages, the document is concise by government standards, but we nonetheless dozed off trying to read it."

Sounds like most governments to me.

Seriously, we all need to move to Washington:
