Joy of Setup

Thanks to the State of Washington’s Vote by Mail program, I was able to vote today and therefore feel 100 percent guilt-free about (continuing to) fast-forward through political ads on my Media Center.

A $0.42 poll tax is well worth avoiding the road-rage-y SUV drivers at the junior high school that serves as my polling place. King County lets you register as a "permanent absentee" voter and 65 percent of registered voters take advantage of it.
