The Bombshell from Alaska

Though I was making over fifty bucks an hour today, I didn't want to work. But I showed up anyway, and thankfully...it was slow. There just wasn't much going on.

On TV, there was a Deadliest Catch marathon on one channel and a Star Wars marathon on another. We watched a little bit of both.

And then we turned it to the news. For what is actually kind of shocking.

Sarah Palin is not running for re-election and she's stepping down as Governor of Alaska.

The words of Obi-Wan Kenobi came to mind: "I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were silenced."

I also imagine the Republicans are saying, "Help me, Mitt Romney, you're our only hope."
