Vote!!!

This fabulous Sha Na Na song is pretty much traditional around here on these occasions.

Have I mentioned -- vote?

Assuming we're not living in a fascist dictatorship, music more appropriate to the mission statement of this here blog resumes tomorrow.

in the state in which missus charley and i reside, every registered voter is sent a mail-in ballot, and we submitted these weeks ago - although not by mailing them in, but by dropping them in the box in front of the high school - we received emails that our ballots had been received, and later on a second email confirming that they had been counted - if circumstances develop in ways not necessarily to our advantage, it's certainly not our fault - meanwhile i remind myself that the path to "seremity now" runs through the wilderness of "que sera, sera"

wikipedia tells us that doris day's hit song:

popularized the title expression "que sera, sera" as an English-language phrase indicating "cheerful fatalism", though its use in English dates back to at least the 16th century. Contrary to popular perception, the phrase is not Spanish in origin (in Spanish it would be "lo que serĂ¡, serĂ¡"), and is ungrammatical in that language. It was evidently formed by a word-for-word mistranslation of English "What will be will be".
