North by Northwest (or just plain North)

Ain't it great. I can hardly keep from smilin all day long lately. Bush won...won big. Like so many others who watched national news and the polls that were so relied on for a sample of things to come in the early hours of the election night, my wife and I were terribly depressed thinking that Bush was destined to lose. Dang. Who'da thunk it. The mainstream media got me (us) again...and we thought we were smarter'n that. Anyway, after a short while, all that disappeared when the results started coming in. What a thrill it was. We were giddy and spent lots of time bantering with each other on ideas to help the distressed liberals. One idea that surfaced was to go to a website that I found offering small plastic compasses for about $5/dozen and send them to liberals that wanted to move to Canada in protest. The compasses were doubly appropriate because they had a pointer (needle) that was red on the southern half. The compasses could help the liberals know where to go and where not to go with one needle. I just wish I was better at marketing this stuff real fast like. Hmmmmmm. Anyway, I guess we shouldn't be too concerned about all this...liberals are fond of threatening and then just not following through.
