"if we have systems that allow for transferring large sums of money online - then we should be able to vote online. as an american overseas i understand why so few of the estimated 7 million of us don't vote. i sent my ballot off last week, my sample ballot and voter guide only arrived today. to get your ballot you need to download and print out a form, mail that form back to your county voter registrars office, they mail you a ballot a month later and then you mail it back to them again.. at least they astronaut can vote online.. one step for man......"

"I lived in Hayward and and have only felt a tremor once - but it was so jolting that I was sure a truck had smashed into the house. One place I would NOT want to be during the Hayward quake would be Cal State Hayward's Warren Hall.

"Once in an office building here I smelled gas. I went around the whole place telling everyone to open a window, "get out". On my way out I stopped to alert the office opposite ours and saw a group sitting on the floor eating durian. Behind two sets of glass doors..They had sheepish look of embarrassed cannibals you might find eating their kin.. I think durian gets you high.. People here squat like junkies under a bridge while eating it.. wtf is it with durian? Why put something so Ick in your mouth.. shiver..."

"I've tried durian, "The King of Fruits" as they call it here in Malaysia.. I would have to disagree. It tastes more like eating baby shit out of a dirty ashtray than 3 day old wet garbage.. I'm asking for it with this comment.. No. I have not eaten baby shit from an ashtray.. But I have eaten durian.. and it tastes like SHIT. I wanted to like it.. but you just want to step back in time afterwards to the moment just before you thought, "Sure I'll try that.""

"One of the most appealing things to me about Obama is his aura of calm and justness. I'm torn, because part of me wants to see him disembowel McCuda in less than 30 seconds. There's a time for polite.. and a time to kick ass."
