Undress me, will I look like a fool (Part 124)...

Once more, kids, it's time for...


I remember, back in 1976 when I was in 3rd grade, we had a mock election in my class...and that was the beginning of it all. In 1980, I remember pestering my mom repeatedly to explain this and that part of the election to me. She took me to the library and we checked out some books so I could learn about it. In 1984, at the tender age of 16, I was discussing and debating politics with my mother and her father. And finally in 1988, I could cast my first vote for president.

I was first able to vote in the spring of 1986, and in the primary in the spring and the general election in the fall, I have cast a vote in every single election since that time (Except for the primary in 1989, when I was in college and didn't make it).

I started college as a history:education major, I changed it and graduated with a B.A. in Political Science in 1991.

Starting in 1990 up until last fall, I worked twice a year at the polls each election, the majority of those spent as the Judge Of Elections for my precinct.

Obviously, I am a political junkie. So how have I been spending this past week?

Hey, some people like fishing, some like collecting stamps, some like knitting. Me, I like politics.
