“We’ve got to make sure that people understand the choices that are at stake.” (Barack Obama)

With this clever quote I wish you an exciting last couple of days before an election that will make history, no matter how it turns out… So do you understand what’s at stake for you, lieber Reader?

Accidentally I changed my background to Tina Fey vs Sarah Palin the other day when reading some news page. After panicking (at least over 50% of my screen), I decided to keep it for a while to get into a christmas election mood.

It happened. Accident. Emergency. A la Patrick Wolf

And to start of your final days for the elections, I suggest not to deal too much with the mud fighting candidate(s) (It’s rather sad to see Mr McCain struggle so hard, isn’t it?), but to check out these pages:

• Top Ten Sarah Palin Excuses For Spending $150K On Clothes (Youtube)
• Letterman top 10 messages on Sarah Palin’s Answering Machine (Youtube)
• Tina Fey on how to do an Palin impression - “Corn Maze” (not Youtube obviously)
• any further suggestions? (comments, pleaase)

An please Americans, if I got to choose between the two women depicted above, I’d still go for Fey. Not just because Palin couldn’t convince me of her being able to see Russia from her house.

Update: Is it just me or why do I crack up every single time TIna says “I think she thinks there’s oil in these Rs”

Update 2: I was shocked not everyone knew this great video… 

“Have we been pranked?!”

Update 3: Palin joke material seems to be growing exponentially in the final days of Electathon: Two French speaking Canadians placed a prank call on Sarah Palin. The comedians keep dropping hints, but somehow Palin doesn’t quite get it. 

As much as we enjoy our convenient, “advanced” technologies nowadays, we shouldn’t just continue without thinking of consequences. The consequences can be huge and affect our lives. Taking a step backwards in development like giving up driving cars and other “conveniences” carrying a fully packed carbon emissions heavy rucksack will be a pain for us, who know what life looked like without coping with the huge consequences that will take action in years from now.
