How to Deal With Election Withdrawal

Don’t know what you are going to do without checking the latest Gallup polls? Think you are going to miss all those political commercials? Worried about how Saturday Night Live will be able to fill their entire show?
Not to worry, I have come up with a nice list that will help you all transition into a non-presidential election world.
1. Build up your foreign policy skills by talking to your neighbors (must live at least one block away to count).
2. Stage your own debates with sock puppets.
3. Use your campaign pins to scrape mildew off from between your shower tiles.
4. Sit back and enjoy all the beer and erectile disfunction ads that will likely replace all the political ads.
5. Read a freaking book.
6. Hold your own election with your pets by putting the same food in separate bowls and labeling them with the candidate’s names.
7. Collect all the campaign signs around your neighborhood and build a sculpture of your favorite candidate. Dartboards and fuel for fires are also acceptable uses for these signs.
8. Call a co-worker a maverick when they come in 5 minutes late.
9. Suggest a “surge” strategy to tackle your laundry problem.
10. Call your local plumber and ask him if he/she have a “Joe” on staff.
11. Watch Deadliest Catch on Discovery Channel in hopes of seeing a member of the Palin family.
12. Ask the WWE to set up a cage match pitting Bill O’Reilly vs. Keith Olbermann

Lol @#2… come to think of it, i do have a lot of socks in the storage!
Hehehe this blog is so funny! Although on the part of the pets where you label their food bowls with the candidates name that contains the same food is kind of similar to persons at times. Sometimes the people just look on the popularity side or on the looks without considering the greater factors. Nice blog by the way I enjoyed reading it.

Thats a cool list of things to do for the post election period. Really funny.
Hahahaha. My favorite here is watching Deadliest Catch in hopes of seeing a member of the Palin family. Bahaha.
One could also ask friends and co-workers regularly “so who are you going to vote for?” clearly stating your withdrawel or utterly confusing them.
Great Post!
Great list. Print that one and hang it up somewhere.
I particularly appreciated the first item on the list.

Todds last blog post..Elections are over
Seriously, I have been wondering what folks would be doing with their time now that all the excitement is over and done with. I mean we are still hearing on a daily basis about the Obama’s checking out the White House, checking out the schools, choosing a pet, choosing the pet’s name and now their favorite pizza that is being flown in for the ceremonies, it does go on and on, but the time spent on the election has definitely been reduced.
Number 7 on your list is the best, just might go looking to if there is any signs left, funny I just haven’t paid much attention this past week to see if they are still up or not.

I can see my neighbors house from my own doesn’t that automatically give me foreign policy experience. When my neighbor rears his head what is the first thing he sees, its my house……
i say sit back and drink a cold one!
HA!, This shit had me rolling, you forgot one. The door to door Campaign, its when you go knock on you doors and run before they catch you, hahah!
Organic Designers last blog post..My wishy wishy list.
I’m an election junkie so now that it’s over I don’t know what I’m gonna do. At least my wife will be happy I’m sure shes sick of the constant news radio in the house. Really I can’t get enough. Guess I’ll just have to listen to Rush to get me all hot and bothered.
@ organic designer: I remember my days of going door to door. I’m glad they are gone couse it’s not easy doing that.
Your list is great! People around here are scoffing up Obama signs like crazy, thinking they are going to be worth “real money” some day. Maybe they’re right!

The Carnvial of the Liberals: The Post Election Blues…
Post Election 2008, Liberals have the blues. Two kinds of blues. First, we have BLUE STATES!!! Lots of them! Unsurprisingly, many of the submissions for this edition of the carnival are about the election. Second, we have the blues over Proposition Eig…
