It’s 5:55pm on a Friday and I’m signing off, unless anything CRAZY happens over the weekend that makes me have to post up on y’all. With a helluva lot of work to accomplish this weekend, I thought this image was tight. I haven’t seen a Presidential Candidate do a pull-up in a minute (ah…ever) and if the Senator from Illinois wins this thing, I hope he’s stretching cause he’s got a lot of work to do.

So, in the spirit of pulling yourself up out of whatever situation you are in, I push you into the weekend with words of encouragement: DON’T STOP FOR ANYONE IN PURSUIT OF YOUR GOALS.

And oh yeah, scroll on down to the bottom and meet Double 7 Film’s Spotlight Filmmakers!

I’ve been getting a lot of voters who aren’t home when I call but tomorrow I will try earlier in the day and see what I can get. I’ve specifically been calling independents in Pennsylvania. Check out the video to see just how easy it is to leave a message…and how long it takes to get to a damn voicemail message these days!
