I've been feeling like I want to write in this blog more.
I've had something on my mind that I haven't had a place to discuss, so I thought, why not here? This is going to be a comment about an episode of "My Name is Earl" which was shown on October 30. John and I record all our favorite shows on the DVR to watch at our convenience, and because John was traveling a lot last month, we're way behind on our shows. We just watched that particular episode of "Earl" last night.
The part that struck me was the very end, where Joy told Earl:
Good thing me and the minister scared the devil out of that
little freak. Reverend Hawnsworth[?] thinks I have great
leadership skills -- says that God wants me to run for mayor.
Now John and I have been joking all during the past couple months that having Sarah Palin on the Republican ticket made us think of Joy Turner as a politician. We about fell off our chairs when we heard Joy say that...it's like the writers were listening to our private conversations!
The entire episode was about a little boy who believed in Voodoo, and Joy led the angry mob who stormed where he was staying. You all have heard of Gov. Palin's witch hunting pastor, haven't you? If not, check out this video on YouTube:

I expect this to be my last comment on the election here!
