I found something much better to watch.

On the Disney Channel they ran "Aladdin."

4. I was watching Anime on the internet. I already know who I'm voting for.
I already know where the candidates stand. No need for me to get angry and throw my pumpkin bread at captain curmudgeon's head on the TV.

5. I fell asleep during it, and...
had a nightmare about water pipes exploding.

6. Me too. I truly had good
intentions of watching, but . . . oh well - had a nice nap.

7. I watched baseball
I tuned in briefly once or twice but just looking at the expression on McCains face (which looked to me like barely contained fury) made me change back quick!

9. I turned it on and then turned it off immediately. I couldn't stand any more of McCain
Edited on Thu Oct-16-08 08:22 AM by mnhtnbb
I watched a 1990 movie on a Showtime channel, "Men Don't Leave" with Jessica Lange and Joan Cusack, Kathy Bates when she was thin, and Chris O'Donnell.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100134/

On edit: When the movie credits rolled I switched to the debate just in time to mute McCain's
final comments and hear Obama's.

10. Me!
I saw enough of McCain acting like a jackass during the first two debates, and I had no desire to see that again. I watched some of my "American Dad" DVDs instead. It was much more entertaining. :)

15. I was so sickened by the last one that I couldn't force myself to watch this one.
I'm trying to avoid getting sick right now.

16. Didn't watch, either
Since I already know who I'm voting for I sprawled out on the couch with my cat and watched a couple of season four episodes of Boston Legal, instead. :)

18. I have choir practice every Wednesday night
a much more constructive use of my time--and relaxing and inspiring rather than infuriating.

20. I worked, played on the Internet, and drove home. This is the first election ever
where I haven't been glued to the debates and all the speeches. No idea why.

21. I didn't. I know who I'm voting for, doubt anything said at the
debate will change my opinion, I'm not into arguing with others about what a candidate said, so it's all pretty much a waste of time for me.
