I saw Sheik about a month ago at an independent wrestling show. He's not moving too well and requires a cane. It's sad to see.
Yeah, wrestling is insanely hard on the body, sadly... I hope the rest of him is in decent health, even if his joints and arguably mind are a bit off...
He's definitely an example of, as Zangief said in Wreck-It Ralph, "Just because you're a bad guy it doesn't mean you're a bad guy." He plays the part of the villain excellently and may be mentally off his rocker somewhat, but he's supposedly a really nice guy in person.
FYI, electronic voting machines do leave a paper trail. There is a paper ballot receipt printed after each vote and trivially made available for inspection for interested voters.

Depends on the machine. Not all of them do. The Diebold voting machines in particular were notorious for having no paper trail.

Most of them are. You have a few ego maniacs but by and large most wrestlers are guys who love wrestling and couldn't be happier that even a few people are happy to see them at a show.
Don't forget that different states have different laws.
Apparently in NY you can't even wear a button or shirt supporting a candidate because that is passive electioneering. If you go to a polling site they will ask you to remove it.
I'm wearing an "I BELIEVE IN MILES EDGEWORTH" shirt today. Is that electioneering?
Nader was on with the local NPR host last night and for the first ten minutes he sounded real good. Going on and on about the value of voting third party and picking the candidate that best matches your views. Then the host mentioned a state rep running for national office that Nader has previously had a very high opinion of. When asked about voting for him Nader became a true Democrat and said he would not vote for him because even though he was a moderate Republican he fealt that sending him to DC would instantly turn the guy into an extremist Republican .
I went to a bar for a night of comedy and results watching... but it was packed! Totally rammed full. Nobody expected it to be sooooo busy. Juliane and I stayed for one drink, and to eat some pancakes, and then came back home again.
What do you guys think of Rocky Anderson? I'm watching the 3rd party debates right now, and he seems really good. Progressive, but smart. Unlike a lot of "far-left" candidates, he's not anti-science and he doesn't have the naive "let's protest everything" mentality that seems prevalent.
In other news, I wrote in my name for NY Assemblyman, since Vito Lopez (the Dem. incumbent) is a mysoginistic crook and the challenger is a nobody.
EDIT: Also, this is the first time I've actually seen Gary Johnson speak. While I think he would be really fun to hang out with, he doesn't seem presidential at all.

At that point I lost all respect for Nader.

EDIT: Since it was a legitimate election, the body politic shut them down.

Well, everything I care about is over.
