In case you wanted my opinion on this debate tonight.

Today in Debate History-

Sep 26 1960

Kennedy and Nixon face off in the first televised presidential debate. Nixon had been recuperating from illness yet refused to wear makeup for the camera, looking haggard and gray. Radio viewers gave positive opinions for Nixon's performance but so many people saw the debate televised that Kennedy gained the lead in the polls, ultimately winning the election.

I came home at mid-day. I'm going to play video games. I'm not sure I'm in a mood to cap the day with a political debate so I may wait for the soundbites afterward.

That's kind of where I'm at too. I got some not so great news today that really doesn't put me in a mood to watch real people arguing. I look forward to the LoT responses on here though.

I thought the water balloons were for throwing at the neighbors when they cheer for (whoever you're against).

GD&CP: are you still having the thing at your place?

If I get out early enough from my appointment I may truck on up there. Should I bring anything?

Gah, no. Since no one seemed available, we've done nothing to prepare. We've still got luggage from the trip lying everywhere, we're in no condition for visitors.

Sigh, I'd love to watch the debate with the Cadaverous Delights. Alas, I'll barely make it home by then ... it would be over by the time I got to Orange County on a Friday evening.

Maybe I'll play the Gemini Cricket Debate Drinking Game and imbibe myself into a stupor.

I will be trying to hear the debate in between shouts from my rabid roomate!
Should be a fun evening, I think.

Morrigoon · 09-26-2008, 04:43 PM

Then don't sweat it. Wasn't sure what time I'll be out anyway.
