As I write, Kerry is about to admit defeat in the US Presidential Election. Bush is now handed a further 4 years to carry out his Third Reich policies. I can not put into words how much hate I have for this man, and disgust at the slightly-bigger-than-half of the US voters who are clearly incapable of making a sensible decision. The far right religious faction is hugely scary and has proven itself to be a vehicle for evil. Well congratulations, bastards. You’ve poisoned all the hope in the world that America could pick itself out of the gutter of the last 4 years.

It really was ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ – hiya, welcome to ITV3, here’s our DOG now let’s get on with a film.

Dead Ringers: the US Election Special, on the other hand, was brilliant. Especially the fake campaign ads and the Fox News segments. “Perhaps John Kerry kills people with his chin?” And the hilarious Michael Moore hunts down Michael Moore. “Why is he laughing? Especially when I’m playing this sad music, and inter-cutting the footage with shots of bad things happening?”

Well, nothing exciting happened today. The world is on hold until Kerry beats Bush. So I’ll shut up now.

I saw this film yesterday – it’s too long and not organised as well as it could be, but is still a very intelligent documentary. Enough has been written about it online already – so check out The Corporation for more.

It’s Sunday, which means the last day of half term. To cheer me up, Nic’s Blog has a reminder that Bremner, Bird and Fortune is on Channel 4 tonight. Woo hoo!

My song of the moment – ‘Purple People Eater’ by Shreb Wooley. They got us to sing it in primary school for some bizare reason. Find, download and enjoy.

Oh, and Happy Halloween. The site will go back to normal tomorrow, thank goodness.

You can’t really fail to realise the Halloween skin this website is (reluctantly)wearing. The truth is – I hate Halloween! It’s the dullest holiday you can imagine, and no, I do not consider hyper little kids running around in crappy costumes eating sweets to be fun. So why the CSS mucking about? Well, it’s a bit of dry run for Saturnalia. (That’s the original Pagan term for the winter festival we generally celebrate around the 25th of December. No – I’m not Pagan.)

If you like calling people names, this gave me a laugh.

It tells you something about Bush that his website is now blocking non-US visitors. Ah well, I guess all the Americans voting from abroad have yet another reason to support Kerry now, huh?

I urge everyone to bet money that Bush wins. That way, if he does win at least you will be slightly richer and can buy a drink to halt the depression. And if Kerry triumphs, consider it a donation to the cause!

Michael Moore will be on Question Time tonight, if you can be bothered to stay up to 10:45pm.

And Doctor Who has a sexy new postcard.

I’m Dominic Self, and I approve this message cause I ain’t got nothing better to do.
