It's kinda like being tracked. Only the pursuers don't have to make a survival check. Which is sort of ironic.

I look out in the parking lot this morning and notice something on my jeep. Assuming it was an advertisement I went out to remove it. Upon arriving, I discovered it to be one of the (hideous) bible tracts. I took a brief look around. There aren't any bible tracts on ANY of the other cars in the parking lot. Some people may have been confused by this apparently random choice of the tract-er to tag me as opposed to someone else. What about my green jeep grand cherokee with a turtle sitting on the dashboard and freakin' milligan college sticker in the rear window makes me most likely to be 'nonchristian'?

Of course, I immediately knew the reason: for about the last year, i've had a d&d window sticker in my jeep, showing my enjoyment and support of the game. However, in addition to implying that i take part in a fun social activity with my friends over pizza, this clearly means i am a satanist, a worshiper of some non-existent d&d deity or, at the very least, atheistic... ...right?

...furthermore, the horrible theology promoted by the tract is surely going to 'do me good', right?

Some of you may remember me mentioning something similar a while back when i found a random tract in the gaming book section of Nords. This is much the same, but it's targeting me specifically.

I'm noticing a trend.

Lord, please save me from your followers.

On friday afternoon, for the first time ever, I did something to fix a car: That is, i replaced the ignition module on sheri's car. Myself. Considering I know only slightly more about cars than i know about nueclear physics, i'm darn proud of this.

On saturday we had a pretty good gaming session. Not killing the party == pretty good. After the game, some people left, some people stayed, some people showed up. We had an interesting conversation involving everything from comedy shows to politics to psychology. Afterward, sheri and i made a midnight run to walmart for sweet potatoes.

Sunday was Easter. We went to ginger's house for lunch. We == me, sheri, tony, eric and justin. We ate lots of fried chicken and played some ninja burger, but eventually ginger got tired and my allergies were acting all crazy, so the party disbanded a bit earlier than it otherwise might have.

Later sunday evening, ginger and justin came over and the four of us played a couple games of Age of Empires 2 - world conquering at its finest. Its pretty cool that i have friends who can bring laptops over and lan game on a whim.

There were some other things i wanted to include in this blog, but i don't remember what they were. They were probably some funny quotes or something. Alas.

I would just like to point out, that nowhere on this website does the word 'cakebread' appear. Well...it does now, but you know what i mean.

Apparently, i've been accused of being one Jared Cakebread. I don't know who this other Jared is, except to say that it's not me. Sam, I'm sure this must be your fault because a google for the inverse-imposter turned up a cycling website with your name on it. There will be vengeance.

I don't pretend to understand how politics work.

I also don't pretend to know how people here in eastern TN look at things, characteristics they view as positive, etc - IE what 'gets their vote'.

Further, I know not everyone is like me. Not everyone looks at things the same way I do and not everyone values the same things I do.

Those things said, I still have some advice for some candidates in the area:

If you're running for office and you have the nickname "trainwreck", do not include it on your promotional campaign posters.
