Musings on Geena Davis

So I've been reading our opponents websites... and I realized we're being way too nice! First, we make signs out of cardboard we found on the road using crayons we're hoping to donate to charity-and what has practically everyone else on campus done? Printed adverts on recyclable paper! Listen, recycling rules, but let's try to remember the first two 'R''s shall we? They're called REDUCE and REUSE! I'm sure Captain Planet was smiling in his grave when he noticed we REused pizza boxes and only made a sufficient yet modest 21 signs.(some of which have yet to be erected)

You now how much teams are allowed to spend on these campaigns? 800 dollars! We might have been spending that much if we could, but we obviously CAN'T. You need 10% of the vote to get your money back. And then it's a free handout from the AMS...and you know where that money comes from?? The STUDENTS (i think, not sure.) With 6 teams running it's difficult for a team from small town Toronto and Muskoka to even have a shot at 8%. BUT FEAR NOT ADVOCATES FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE AND REFORM! WE WILL NOT STAND BY AND LET THE WORLD PUNCH YOU IN THE THROAT! We will continue to fight the good fight AT ALL COSTS (under 50 dollars or so)

But back to the websites i read- apparently some other campaigns think it's time to start slinging mud, referring to their own platform as "the best". I won't name names, but it's that type of attitude which can do nothing but FURTHER the clique. I'm willing to admit that we are all equals. But until the other teams retreat from their current alledged superiority based on "the best" platform "so far", i fear the elections may be lost to the dark demon of smear campaigns and olden days trickery. And voodoo (like in Weekend at Bernies 2...that was awesome)

I leave you with a quote aimed at keeping strong during moments of weakness and despair:

"Jimmy Dugan: All right, everyone, let's listen up now, listen up. Something important has just happened. I was in the toilet reading my contract, and it turns out, I get a bonus when we get to the World Series. So, let's play hard, let's play smart, use your heads.
Doris Murphy: [quoting him] That's that lump three feet above our ass, right, Jimmy? [laughter]
Jimmy Dugan: Some more prominent than others, there, Doris."
