Everyone turn off the TV until the polls close.

It's a sh*tshow, and it's not good for your blood pressure. Get some work done, drive Grandma to the polls, clean the closet, whatever...just don't turn the idiot box on. You'll thank me later.

Please don't repost negative information. This is what surpresses turnout. Get more people to post that they voted. Then turn um all off. Remember more votes today help us. Remind everyone you know to vote. GOTV GOTV. Thanks.

I'm coming home after teaching class (around 8pm CST) to watch the results roll in.

I have a nice bourbon to toast Obama's victory waiting.

National No TV Day. Productivity and IQ will dramatically increase. Vision will clear. Time will expand and we will be able to do those things we can never find the time for.
