Waitasecond. I'm from Chicago, and I've got lots of ties - but I don't think I have 131 of them! What's going on here??

Wow. I don't think I realized that I actually kind of wanted to be president. I'm pretty disappointed.

However: Congratulations, Acally!

Congrats to the winners. The one good thing about losing an election is you cant get blamed for anything. Im kind of shocked we had over a hundred votes though! Do we have a lot of lurkers that interested in our internal politics?

I doubt we did. That was meant to be a joke (my idea - and ill-conceived I now think) that just didn't come off.

Dude, I loathe the domestic political scene, why on earth should I want to be into any other? Val is perfectly placed to do that for me.
