OK, think of that sexy, young, nubile beauty you run into at the post office, sending an intriguing package to a far-off land, or that devilish, cute and witty sweetheart in front of the local supermarket, working her night job:... there she goes, dancing around and caressing the pole, working it like a pro, stealing a sexy glance over a few bills tucked in her panties...
Well... that is precisely what I was NOT doing all of yesterday...
I actually spent the day, working the polls... the primary election polls in the U.S.
Instead of widening my lower lips, I was opening the registered voters List book. Instead of sliding up and down the metal poll, I was instructing voters to slide their ballot into the Inka-Voting machine. Instead of receiving scum-infused numbers, I was accepting ballots.
And, it was quite fun, actually!
But...., after fifteen hours of voting instruction and ballot accepting...
... well, it was a bit disheartening to find that only 10% of my precinct's registered voters actually showed up to exercise their rights...
The most inspiring moment of the experience, though, came when the 1st grade class of the local elementary school came to visit. The students asked such questions as: "Can my grandma put our ballot in THAT box?" and "Where can my big brother tell the president to do good things?"
Well...., overall, I wish the conscientious seven-year-olds of the world could vote....
... and..., I wonder what would happen if they were to end up 'working the poles' in another capacity...

Only 10%? Well, that doesn't make for much of an election, does it?

(apologies to any chinese men who might read this blog)
I saw this t-shirt really recently that said "I support single moms" and it had a picture of a stripper working the pole on it. I laughed instantly!
[should I be ashamed that I only vote in presidential elections?]
