A time to vote

November, the month of elections and turkeys. A likely combination if you ask me.

Another election is right around the corner, and I must admit politicians can be some of my favorite people. They are, and have been some of the most colorful people ever placed on this earth.

True, it may be trivial and unsightly when we see the candidate’s signs in someone’s yard or at stop lights. Yet, these signs become a vital part of our lives and experiences.

Will you vote? I hope so. If you don’t vote, then don’t complain. Take a stand, decide on what side of the fence you are, make yourself believe in something and vote.

Driving to the newspaper office this morning, I couldn’t help but see signs for a new corner. The brightly colored signs remind us that a certain person has a wide variety of backgrounds and work experience. But that in one office I cannot get excited about.
