Election Reaction, Health Day and Reviews
Nov. 7th, 2012 10:30 amA few random thoughts on a dreary Wednesday in Chicago:
The Election: I'm happy Obama won, and especially happy that it's not that close. We'll undoubtedly be hearing about "voter fraud" from The Usual Suspects, but much like the "NASA faked the Moon landing" crowd, only cranks will listen. I'm even more pleased that Tammy Duckworth kicked that asshole Joe Walsh out of Congress. My post-election thoughts closely mirror John Scalzi's.
Health Day: We had our annual health day at work. I got my annual flu shot, and more importantly, when they measured my blood pressure via the manual cuff it was lower than it has been in a while. We'll see what the blood work shows in a few weeks, but perhaps this exercise thing helps! ;-)
Reviews: I have four reviews up on POD People - specifically, the novels Silent Dances (StarBridge #2), There Are Reasons Noah Packed no Clothes, Insurgent (Book 2 of America's Future) and Entities: The Selected Novels of Eric Frank Russell. Reviews and links to purchase are available at the link above.
