VOTE!

November 4, 2008

The lines may already be 45 minutes long at 6:15 in the morning, the poll worker may not even ask you for an ID [seriously disturbing...seriously], the amendments may sound like they were written by a 5th grader with a thesaurus but no dictionary, and you may not even be entirely 100% certain which is the lesser of two evils…but the democratic process–and the promise it holds– is still worth celebrating, worth defending, worth participating in.

Plus, you could probably eat for free all day with the rewards Starbuck’s, KrispyKreme, Chipotle, Chick-Fil-A and Ben & Jerry’s are offering for that little red “I voted” sticker.

Ventures is a chronicle, probably sporadic at best, of my risks, enterprises and speculations in pursuit of change and improvement; in the world, in my life, in myself. I hope you will profit by it.
