Since their last presidential election, our American friends have decided to have as much fun as possible during elections.

On October 7, California may see Governator vs. the revenge of the Pr0n. If Gray Davis looses over Schwarzie, will he dare to say "I'll be back?"

Side notes:

1. Jeremy Zawodny spanks Google's PageRank:

If you search Google for "Schwarzenegger for governor" you get an entry form [sic] my blog as the first result.

At the time of this post, he's still the first result. Good links on PageRank on his weblog.

2. As always each time they face a problem, the US dig further into technology and want to replace their punch cards by electronic voting systems. Precisely computers running Microsoft Access on Windows, with all their renowned security and reliability. What's wrong with paper bulletins and manual counting by ordinary citizens under public scrutiny, as we've been doing for centuries here?
