Once Again, Duh

I was poking around at the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America website (ccfa.org) today -- as one does -- and looked at the banner and realized that I've been mis-spelling Crohn's as Chron's. You can't imagine how this disturbed me. I'm a good speller, dammit! Anyway, what irritated me most was that 1) I probably mis-spelled it here in my diary a hundred times and 2) I probably mis-spelled it when I picked the URL and title on my Crohn's blog, which, frankly, I never write in anyway, and 3) I mis-spelled it when I picked a username/email address on Yahoo, which I needed because there are a couple of good message board/groups for this at Yahoo. So I had to open a new account -- it's oldecrohne, which I enjoy and couldn't believe was available, although I did stick some extra e's in it, like I do with oldewoman -- and re-sign up for the groups. And now I just went over my last month's worth of entries, and you know, I had it right more times than I had it wrong. But now it's okay.

So, was that Super Duper Tuesday anti-climactic, or what? Is anything really different now than it was the day before? And why, why, why is anybody voting for Mike Huckabee? I realize that he represents the actual values of many people, and I think that's swell. But even if you are one of those people, can you not see that this man is trying to make fundamental changes in our country, and turn it into one ruled by religion, and a specific religion? And people who do not happen to believe in that specific religion would not fare well in such a society? If that's okay with you, well then. (I'll stop now, before I get hostile.)

It's early, but I've eaten, and I think I'm going to take a little rest now. Been a long day.
