I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of strange.

Today I'm having this overwhelming feeling of "what's the big deal?" as in, something that has been on my heart and head for a few days has pretty much dissipated to a reasonable non-dramatic level. Probably because I got a lot off my chest last night. I also woke up with inspiration for an art project that I'm hoping to do this weekend.

I've had some interesting conversations at work and via phone this week which I'm summing up by taking it to the polls and finding out what my constituents think. I think my slanted language in the questions reveals what my personal opinion is. The general rule is that if your answer is "maybe" or "depends", than it's actually "no". Sort of like true/false questions -- if it's not wholly true at all times, it's false.

I wonder if your ballots had more fluffy questions like these if people would come out to vote on other political issues as well.

The title of this poll is supposed to be "Raybear's Propositions", but for some reason it got cut off.

I'm not quite understanding the Starbucks question. Here's how I read it:

In theory, if someone tells you that Starbucks tastes better, is it unilaterally a result of marketing? or a result of their own personal taste?

I think that if they prefer the way Starbucks tastes, they like how it tastes, even if it's the burned-taste. I'm willing to give people the benefit of the doubt. And their own free will.
