    Where are you registered? Or where would you register? I guess that's the question.

    I filled out a bunch of stuff my freshman year that I thought registered me, but when I went to show up to vote I was voting on Michigan issues. I thought it was pretty stupid that as someone that doesn't really pay taxes in Michigan (outside of like a sales tax) and someone that doesn't permanently live there or plan on living there that I could vote on Michigan issues. So I just left.

    I meant to do it when I was home but I just never got around to it. I really didn't want to deal with whatever I'd have to fill out and go about doing while I was out of state and dealing with school and finding a co-op/internship.

    It says "Voter Registration" on it, you fill it out, sign it, and mail it in. 🙄

  • Now offering 3-to-1 odds.

    And i'm serious, I'm not sure Obama is going to win. I think he's probably in a better spot than Romney, but this thing is up for grabs.

  • Okay, I'm accepting Cal's ridiculous bet of 100 tomatoes, or whatever. I don't know how this is going to work, but if Obama wins he'll donate $100 worth of tomatoes to his food bank and we'll have no way to know if he ever did. If Romney wins I'll give $300 to Fisher House and post the email receipt in here.

    Anyone else?

  • I could probably check that for you.

    Akron Canton Food Bank is not far from here neither is he.

    I've actually seen his tomato prices and 100 bucks is a lot of tomatoes.

  • It's really not that important. I'm not interested in taking his money.

    He can give them sauce tomatoes.

    I say you pay the shipping, Cal, And send them out to LA and let heck give them to his favorite food bank.

    If Obama is reelected they will certainly need more food.

  • No, it's fine. Really.

    COME ON MAN!

    I'll even help him pay the shipping cost.

  • You know, this would be a lot easier if Cal would agree to use paper currency.

    Feeling better about the election today. I think the last few polls indicate that Obama is in much better shape than Romney. Still anyone's game, but I'm sure Romney's camp would much rather be where Obama is than where they are. Jobs report tomorrow is supposed to be more of the same - good, but nothing special. Not going to change anything big, but will show that we're still slowly improving.

    Still, if Romney's only a 20% chance to win, that's not that bad. Like the chances that someone batting .200 will get a hit.

    Ps - Thanks, Chris Christie!

  • Your dirtbag president is making our currency worhtless in the future.

    I say it's a deal - Steve has a great idea - I'll pay the shipping, and Heckbunker can turn them over to the

    nearest food bank or shelter....

  • Problem is, they don't want tomatoes shipped across the country. They want money so they can do whatever they want with it.

    Just keep your tomatoes man. Make a nice sauce. I don't want to take anything from you. If Romney wins, I'll donate. If Obama wins, do something nice for your local food bank. Tomatoes or whatever.

  • If ObaMao wins, people will need tomatoes, and eventually, we'll have to band together as neighbors to get by,

    and I think they'll call about my ccw permit next week.

    BTW, Steve, those prices have spiked due to Obamao increased energy costs, Obamao-inflation, unemployment creating

    greater demand for real stuff with no pesticides, and we've "created" a great demand for our cherry tomatoes, including

    our husk tomatoes/ground cherry tomatoes. They are a huge hit, especially with kids.

    We get a lot of sales by giving out free samples....

    In fact, because of Dirtbag ObaMao, the going price for tomatoes is 50 bucks a quart, next year, because the dumbass "president" is printing money

    like the Weimar Republic did. 🙂

  • Okay, crazy person. It's a deal. You donate your tomatoes to your local food bank in the amount roughly equal to $100 if Obama wins. I'll donate $300 to Fisher House if Romney does.

  • Not surprised that the board's resident liberal fascist refuses to accept the fruits of Cal's patriotic labor.

  • 😆
  • LOL.

    Good thing I already learned to never drink anything while reading this board. 😁

  • i literally lol'd at Pax

  • Okay Heck.

    I think it's a loser but I'll give you 10 bucks straight up on Mitt.

    Even odds.

    Here's the catch if you lose my charity is the Cancer Society.

    Fair enough?

    WSS

  • Sure. But why do you hate the troops?

    (I'm kidding,)
