1. What's the demographic breakdown of Dededo?

Do they bowl and drink beer?

2. I don't know. But what I do know is that all this Guam business....

just cracks me up.

What a miserable place.

3. I keep thinking it like Hawaii....

but cheaper accomodations.

4. Like Hawaii with nothing to do but get drunk and get into fights with the locals.

I was once thrown in the Dededo "jail", which was just a patch of barren ground surrounded by barbed wire. There was some sort of canvas canopy on one side of it.

8. I just loved the 'open air' airport. That was odd as hell!

But the drinks were great!

5. and if it stays the same, 52.7% to 47.3%, when can we start screaming that

Obama won not by 6% but only by 5.4%? I am sure Obama supporters will lead us in correcting the record, right?

6. Forget percent it's 7 VOTES!!

Now THAT's tight!

[Bumblebee]

7. Tight indeed. I thought I already saw postings here about how Obama

"sailed through" the Guam caucus. They were a bit premature but, oh, so typical. I demand a RECOUNT!!! (wouldn't an Obama supporter if the results were reversed?)
