Yesterday, the great city of Los Altos had local elections. Part of the election was voting for someone to the Foothill/DeAnza Junior College Board. Ok, first: Why do I get to vote for that? I guess they are local public schools, but people come from all over CA to go to Foothill. Whatever. Second: I did no research on the candidates at all, and simply voted for the computer programmer. Sweet. Young people really just need some good, old fashioned re-programming.
On the bright side, I got to use those new-fangled touch screen voting machines. It gave me sass for only voting for 1 candidate when I could have chosen three. But I said, "Oh yeah? OH YEAH?!?" and punched my fist through that silly machine, and it made silly breaking sounds. Ok, not really. the part about the punching was made-up. And the part about yelling is a bit of an exaggeration. But I really did vote!
