Becca Stareyes

There's always this question, if someone -- say, George Washington, or Thomas Jefferson -- ran for president of the US today, would they win?

( Thinking Aloud... )

So, back in 2000, when I was but a wee Becca Stareyes (read: I hadn't graduated high school), one of the big internet memes* was the HamsterDance. Soon, everyone was making pages full of dancing .gifs of cute animals, Jesus, and even the people in Election 2000.

Technology has advanced since then.

* Before anyone but the informational theory geeks knew what a meme was.

Last night I had a dream that there was a bear in my bed that was threatening to break my arms and legs if I didn't vote for the right person. (I don't think it liked my answers.)

Stephen Colbert was right about bears...
