The DNC is coming! The DNC is coming!

So the DNC is being held in my neck of the woods (or near it) next week and its made for some pretty interesting goings on.

Rage is playing a free show but you have to get tickets by lottery and you don't find out if you've won until the night before the show so even if i could by some miracle win tickets i'd never be able to get a baby sitter on that short of notice on a wed.

The Daily Show is filiming in denver all week and tickets to that were free also but they were long gone by the time i found out.

I was going to look into volunterring but i'd have to get on a wait list.
I heard on the radio the otherday something about giving homeless people free movies passes... um, ok, wth?

and my coworker just told me about the scheduled protests. thats right SCHEDULED protests. how can you schedule a protest? something about that just seems wrong to me, very wrong.
i'd kind of like to go hear Obama speak, but theres no way in hell i'm gonna go deal with that crowd.
