Tell the kids that those folks are just conserving energy but not raising 
all their fingers.
;-}




Anyhow...  Kerry has now conceded: Bush has the popular vote.

If you are unhappy with the results locally or nationally, work to field 
candidates who can win the next time.

If you are happy with the results, work to constantly remind the winner of 
why you voted for him and chide him when he appears to be straying.

In either case, be polite, take a deep breath, enjoy the absence of 
political phone calls, TV ads and literature, weed out your toolbox, order 
more supplies, count the days until Christmas, bet on having a white 
Christmas (where applicable, of course), support the troops - no matter 
whoever sent them wherever for whatever, get to know your local politicians.

Laugh once or twice.




Anybody want to guess how you can rebush a set of keys - Baldwin .146 front 
and center - prepped the same way, using the exact same bushing cauls, 
cloth, batch of glue and day - somehow have absolutely beautiful front 
bushings and have the balance be loose?  It's frusticating.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
