So, while I was sitting here waiting for the polls to close so everyone can start to get a picture of who will be the next President of the United States, I started surfing CNN’s website. I found a list of times that polls close (in Eastern Standard Time, of course). Since Alaska’s polls close at 1 a.m. EST, I started thinking to myself, “Wouldn’t it be funny if by midnight each candidate had 267 electoral votes and the whole election came down to Alaska?”
This struck me as funny because Alaska sucks.

Shaun, it appears to me that you are not a huge fan of the great state of Alaska. Who else, I ask you, could give you such amazing wonders such as Mt. Mckinley and, as recently reported in a brilliant editorial in the Athens News, the Alaskan penguin? I am disapointed, too, that the history major in you doesn’t have a bit more respect for Seward’s Folley.
Really and truly, it’s all about the pengiuns.
