These Damn Newfangled Video Things...

I'm sittin' there, all pooped from climbing the stairs down at the highrise, trying to listen to a YouTube video about this kid Derek Ashong who's raising all the hoopla about supporting Obama, and cussin' it out. "Why the hell can't they have better sound on these videos?" I mutter, tugging my monitor headphones into a better position, trying to crank the sound on my laptop.

I look down, the headphones aren't plugged in. Started laughing pretty hard at myself then. "This is what I get for not having coffee."

The irony? I wear headphones for a living.

Fuckin' amateurs... Yeesh. Ashong's got the right POV on Obama, though, and one I share. (The video's here.)
