It's Been Such A Long Time
By SugarMagnolia in Touch of Grey
March 3, 2008

So forgive the rehash here, but inspiration seems to be running short these days, as is my free time. I thought the election slant entirely appropriate, however. Just substitute "elections coming up next month" for "primaries coming up tomorrow" and, voila! There you have a do-it-yourself blog, of sorts. I have grown so weary of this election I cannot even find words. I remember how "psyched" I was when I wrote this original blog back in March. Of course, November seemed a world away then. Now it is upon us. My advice is still the same....VOTE! So without further ado, here is the original March '08 blog.....enjoy. And for access to the original YouTube videos, visit this original posting in my March '08 archives.

Since I've blogged, that is....Looking for inspiration seems to be little problem for some bloggers. Many find their voice in politics recently, which is to be expected, given the primaries coming up tomorrow. I don't need to tell yall to get out there and vote, because those who will, will. And those who won't, well, if you don't want to take advantage of the freedoms and responsibilites of being a citizen of the greatest nation in this world, then there is nothing can be done to change that mentality.

So why the purple text today? Just cuz....it seems like a purple day to me, a combination of our great nation's red and blue people, politically speaking. What better color to represent our combined efforts, Republican and Democrat, Independent and otherwise? To take the edge off your Super (or not) Tuesday, I can't imagine any better remedy than a Two-fer You Tube feed.

Enjoy the inanity of the candidates' push to be elected with the one and only Alice Cooper's "Elected". This great vid hits a little too close to reality, monkeys and all. And, in the spirit of the color purple, I have one of Deep Purple's greatest songs, "Lazy", just to encourage you to not be (lazy) tomorrow. "Lazy" is an epic rock tune that is not to be missed! After your hard work as a voting citizen is done tomorrow, find some good music for yourself to enjoy, and thank your lucky stars you are an American and have the freedom to play your stereo at full blast, and to attend a concert (or two, or a hundred) if that is your wish. God Bless America and rock on, kiddies! And....support your local politician!
