US,

The election is over /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif No more polls /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Less pundits /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif No more projections /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif No more constant "I have a plan to..." /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

We might be able to see news now. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Didn't you really mean to say "we might be able to see REAL news now!"?

I know I voted, but I also know that I was getting really tired of hearing the polls, pollsters, and everyone else for the past 6 to 8 weeks.

Yeah, I agree with that.

But did you forget? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Now we get to start seeing all of the Christmas commercials! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I will say that at least it seems like someone is trying to be reasonable. I didn't see the first Christmas commercial until the day after Halloween! /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Heck Garry, I'm almost DONE Christmas shopping for the lovely Mrs_Bob for this year!!! And since I don't have cable or satellite, I don't really see too many of the commercials on TV.

Shopping's got nothing to do with it, Bob. I'm finished with the shopping for my wife too. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

It's just the onslaught of these commercials that gets me every year. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

I don't watch a lot of the network stuff anymore. I'm pretty much watching the Golf channel, HGTV, Discovery, History, DIY, and HBO sports when I do watch the T&V. But even those channels seem to get inundated with Christmas commercials. Just last night I was watching the 19th Hole on the Golf channel. A commercial came on with John Madden and some country music singer singing Christmas songs! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif John Madden? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif SINGING?? /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Turns out it was a commercial - a Christmas commercial - for Outback Steakhouse! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I guess I would just like to see it toned down a bit.

Wishful thinking I suppose. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I just hope our fearless leaders take steps to deal with the divisions of the last several years. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Although I wanted it to be a specific candidate, it was as important to me that it didn't become a fiasco like in 2000. I'm glad it's over.

You mean, we can get back to the Scott Peterson trial?? Perhaps it's almost over for us... geez, what will they replace it with? /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Richard, funny you should mention that trial. Whenever any station starts to report on the Scott Peterson trial, my wife & I both race for the remote to change channels or turn it off. What happened to that woman & her unborn was terrible, but it has become a media event all in itself. It turns me off.
