Flugtag

First, and most importantly, check out this website: Pandora Radio. If you like music at all, you should have a great time with that website. If you already knew about it, then why the hell didn't you tell me, cool guy?

Yesterday was Flugtag and we went there to register voters. Some people killed it. I did good for me, which is bad for most everyone else. Voter reg is not really my cup o' tea. I was shocked out how enthralled people were by watching what are basically parade floats be pushed off the edge of a "launch pad" into the Willamette River - wow, i'm just realizing that i haven't explained Flugtag in the blog. It's an event hosted by Red Bull where people build "flying" machines that are then pushed into the river. It's ridiculous but kind of fun to watch. Oh, and as a side note: the Willamette River is not clean by any means. Sections of the Willamette are still a superfund site and the federal government is arguing with whomever is going to clean it up. I hope no one gets cancer because of this little event.

Anyway, there were about 50,000 people out to watch this dunking of the mindless. I only got a handful of voters registered because every time i would approach someone they were pissed that i was interrupting them watching falling objects splash. It was so ridiculous. "I'll tell you when they're getting ready for splashdown. Just fill this card out!"
