Noticed that there was no GUS thread for the night, figured I would try to rectify my recent laziness. But I got nuthin'.

On top of it all, the local rag is helping spur on the crazies.

You see, I live in Gilbert, AZ. You know that 20% of people who supported the Shrub through thick and thin? I bet half of them live right here. Last year's election should point that out. Zoom in on Arizona, and click the House tab. See that bright red dot? I am smack-dab in the middle of it. Along with teh crazies, I have Mormons. Lots of them. You know, those lovely people who killed gay marriage in California? What an inclusive bunch of folks they are, huh?

I also get delivered to me, for free, the East Valley Tribune. Why I get it for free, via delivery, along with everybody else in Gilbert, I couldn't tell you. I guess they couldn't sell enough of editions, so now we will deliver it to everybody. For free. Seems like a smart business decision, right? Now they HAVE to read it! They got us now!

But on Sunday, I just had to open the paper up to see what they thought about the Commencement speech given by President Obama at ASU.

I don't answer my home phone. Ever. If someone needs to call me, they use my cell. I get WAY too many calls, even though I am on the do not call list, offering me free maintenance on my heating unit. And I live in Arizona. And way too many calls for a once in a life opportunity to own a vacation rental. Even though I don't have any money to go on vacation, let alone buy a property to go on vacation to. You get the point. Then, along came Tuesday. It was a normal morning, getting my 2 year old ready for pre-school. And then realizing that he was just too sick to make it through a day there. And God knows what other sicknesses he would pick up at school. And then the phone rang....

I am surrounded, and I don't like it one bit. Nope.

Was it my fault?
