VP Debate

Clearly, Joe Biden is a perfect human being.  He has a winning smile and calls out bullshit very clearly when he hears it.  I thought his delivery on just about every issue was really well done, and beyond the delivery, his substance was - from what I know - accurate and convincing.  Paul Ryan just said - similar to what Romney did in the first presidential debate - very wrong things, though I'm glad that Biden (and the moderator on occasion) called him out on.

It was fun watching the debate with two friends after sitting at a bar with them for an hour and a half or so.  I wish we could have played a drinking game, but I have a meeting tomorrow morning for the TAs, and I'm supposed to read and grade three papers by then.  Blah.  I don't want to.

I downloaded Streetlight Manifesto albums today and put them on cds, so I also went to best buy and bought one of those cd binders.  So now I can stop putting them in individual cases.  I'm really fond of a lot of their songs, but Keasbey Nights might be my favourite right now.  It's just really fun and catchy.  Then again, about all of what I've listened to so far sounds absolutely wonderful.  I'm really glad I discovered them (thank you, World/Inferno pandora station)!

I think I'm going to try to hang out and play video games with electrical engineer tomorrow.  Because I want to just play games for a night.

    1. Keasbey Nights is a song by Streetlight, not a separate band! And I would say they're underground; they have a punk ska style. They're fun to listen to!
