Work was a blur today, a blizzard of emails punctuated by a couple of afternoon customer visits that broke up the monotony. As always, I started the day with an early morning walk of the dog. It was down to one degree again (it was -3 when I went to bed last night) so already the cold wave is moderating. The waning moon is now a slim crescent near the horizon in the pre-dawn darkness. Still, it didn't seem as cold, probably because of lack of wind or perhaps because I am getting used to it.
I think the United States people do not want to elect presidents with strange names. I went through all the president's names today and they are all easy-to-pronounce names like Adams, Bush, Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Reagan, Carter, Truman, Lincoln and Taylor. The oddest name I could come up with was Eisenhower but I think Eisenhower got a free pass with his name by the voters due to his role in helping us win WW2.
So according to my theory, candidates such as Guiliani and Huckabee are probably out and we will probably end up with a Romney or Edwards or something simple like that.
Could somebody with the surname of Buttafucco ever get elected president? I doubt it. President Buttafucco will probably never happen and a name like that is condemned to remain in headlines of New York tabloids and in monologues of David Letterman shows.
Breakfast today: Stonyfield yogurt (strawberry). Lunch was a chicken teriyaki wrap at Fresh City. For dinner, five pieces of chicken (legs and wings), broccoli and a couple handfuls of peanuts. Liquid was two coffees, two Propels, three Pilsner Urquells and a coffee cup full of Kahlua (straight). Still have a full bottle of Kahlua left from Christmas and I intend to finish it.
I will probably have to start taking down some Christmas decorations over this weekend. I also intend to watch all four NFL wild-card playoff games.
