This is Rediculus

North Florida is still paying the price for Hurricane Ike.

Two weeks ago, residents rushed to the gas stations to fill their tanks due to a text message that alerted residents that gas was going up to $5 the following day.

The gas went up that Saturday, but it didn't quite make the $5 mark. In fact, most gas stations didn't make it at all. All the gas stations ran out of gas. How ridiculous is that? What's worse is it's two weeks later and I still can't find a convenient GAS STATION with GAS!!!

Like Jeezy said, or maybe Wall Street, "We're in a recession." lol.
Either way, the word is out and something must be done about it.

This [economy] has gone too far. Even Diddy is flying commercial now--First class, but still commercial.

I'm flying out of the county. I'm going to Ghana (YAY me). Hopefully I can bring back some gas for a cheap price. We'll see what they have. lol

"No Match, No Vote"

There is always a problem with Florida and the words “presidential election.” I don’t know if they're like oil and vinegar where they don’t mix, but it is a true statement that they are not very fond of each other.

A new voter registration law in Florida is causing some controversy that could affect thousands of new voters.

Recently, a “no match, no vote” law could prevent eligible voters from making it to the polls this November. The “no match, no vote” law states that if information in the state and federal databases does not match what is on your voter registration card, then you will not be able to vote unless you submit a provisional ballot.

According to a news report by wtxl.com, the law previously blocked 16,000 eligible Floridians from registering to vote.

Staff officials say there are ways to make your vote count in November. Officials encourages all perspective voters to make sure their form is complete, they write legibly, and turn in all forms on time.

The deadline to register for the November election is October 6th.

What do you think about the controversial issues surrounding Florida and the elections? Drop a line and let me know. I want to know if the government, in Diddy’s words, “is bugging out.”

Diddy's Attack on Palin

Why are there so many attacks on Sarah Palin?

Have we forgotten she is an American citizen with feelings? To attack her values is one thing, but attacking her family draws the line that no one should cross. Maybe that's the downside of being a political figure seeking such a powerful role in America? In the long run, overcoming obstacles triumphs over all. 

One obstacle Palin probably isn't worried about are the comments from rap icon and business mogul, P. Diddy.  Fans and the media are now attacking Diddy for his remarks against Sarah Palin.

Diddy has been seen in the public eye as a cutthroat businessman who takes nothing less than the best. His tactics are severe, but he believes his reasons are for love and success. Diddy is admired because of his business savy and his willingness to give aspiring entertainers and professionals a chance at their dream. Diddy's rep is powerful in the world, but his remarks may have caused a negative vibe in the political world.

The blog entry by Diddy displays ideals that are comical to a certain extent, but not necessarily fact-based.  Palin supporters argue that Diddy's national influence causes fans to believe in the "ignorance" of his comments rather than seek true answers and opinions for themselves.

Diddy explains in his apology video to Palin that his comments were not meant to be taking in the wrong way but they were delivered to Youtube viewers Diddy-style. The comments were meant to provoke thought on the topics at hand, and encourage Americans to exercise their right to democracy by voicing their opinions. The "Ciroc Obama" or Diddy may be a comedian in his own sense, but who is the joke really on?
