-the results are in-

the facial hair poll ended at some point today. the winner is...(insert 20 minute drum roll here)...the thinner omish beard! keeping the beard lost by a single vote. so...at some point this weekend or next week i will be getting a haircut...and getting rid of most of the beard. just dont be surprised by all the ugly that was at one point covered by beard. thanks to all who participated in this very important vote.
i heard a stat today. and it blew my brain. ive heard dollar amounts on the iraq war before...but someone on the radio today said that the iraq war is costing tax payers $5000.00 per second. are you kidding me? we cant feed and shelter the homeless in this country? we cant feed the starving kids in africa? but we can raise $5000 a second to drop bombs on a country who had NOTHING to do with 9/11. and we still have not been given a real honest reason for this war. unbelievable.
"you are far across the ocean, in a war thats not your own. and while youre winning theirs youre going to lose the one at home. do you really think the only way to bring about the peace is to sacrifice your children and kill all your enemies?" -larry norman-
today was one of "those" days at work. just a long day. mandra had the kids this evening...so i sat down on the couch to watch some baseball...bad idea. i found myself waking up from an accidental nap about 2 hours later. way to waste your little bit of paul time. oh well, i must have needed it.
its raining so hard today. last i heard we had already gotten over an inch...and its still pouring. but luckily it hasnt switched over to snow yet. we would be getting a ton of snow if i was only a few degrees colder. theyre still talking 4 to 8 inches for tomorrow...hopefully it just rains...i dont want any more snow..
