Aye.

That completely missed me.


A golden energy
Was rising out of my head
I shed my evil skin
And found myself again

I was wrong, I don't mind
The impossible seems possible
This time I'm an electric wire
If the sun can radiate then so can I

I think a neat thing to do, if I actually had financial backing to get commercials etc., would be to run as an anarchist. If I actually win, I'd resign, but the point would be that I'd ask those fed up with the electorate system should vote me to make a point.

I just image:

'Four score and seven years ago, i was on the toilet reading the news when a thought struck me. Where was the toilet paper? In my horror and furry i decided the only thing to do was to run for control of this great nation.... and now after all this time i can finally wipe my rear end...' - President Bobo The Clowns address to clowngress after his pie fighting anurgeration.

Our candidate wanted to make the council headquarters into a pet pampering salon. I thought 'no change there then'.

lol, nor in most of the country. In small constituencys they win, possibly because there are no other candidates to vote for, the people are nuts, or no-one turns up to vote?

Well said. No-one votes around here. But then we are mainly ruled by the "Krew's" and "Posse's" so if you vote you get shot or summat like that.

Im sure its not. That sounds like a nice combination. I would go into what combination I am, but we would be here forever.
