and the horse died standing up

Anthropology 202 starts tonight at six. I went to the bookstore on my lunchbreak to pick up the texts, but when I saw the three 'Required' books, I immediatly recognized them as 'Not actually required. Not really.'
I may get there tonight and see everyone else sitting around 3 hardback novels (Enemy Aliens by David Cole, Rogue State by William Blum and Our Kind by Marvin Harry) but I kind of doubt it. These look a bit more book-reporty to me.

I also called the king county voters office today to find out if they'd changed my address and why the hell hadn't they sent me a voter card when I registered over 2 months ago. The woman who answered the phone said that the vendor they'd hired to distribute the cards was having a hard time keeping up with demand, so I should let everyone know that they can find their polling place online and vote whether they've received their card yet or not. Hear that, washington state? You can pretty much just show up and vote.

Ooh, good call. Should probably do this, since I'm going to be in new digs come Election Day.

The first two "required" books are available at your friendly Seattle Public Library, and are even on the shelf right now.

I just entered the names and birthdays of people I know and found out their polling places, and for some reason I don't think I should be able to do that. I mean, there's no reason why not... I just don't think I should.

Ew, that is a little freaky...

Why is it freaky? Anybody who's birthday I know, I generally know where they live or how to find them. Anyway, you can use somebody's name and look them up in the phonebook and go right to their house, so why do I care where they vote?
