My goal is as simple and narcissistic as me. I want my country to run so well and efficiently I can ignore it and spend my time on horror boards bitching about the failures of Rob Zombie’s horror films or the beauty that is James Whale’s The Old Dark House.

My goal is not to be here.  And I suspect many of you feel the same way.

Not that you aren’t fine people, but many of you don’t even the difference between Jason Vorhees and Michael Myers.

And despite my best efforts, I still can’t get people to stop comparing George W. Bush and Dick Cheney to vampires. (Hint: vampires don’t inspire fear to get their poll numbers up. Also they aren’t as blood thirsty.)

So until we save our country from the forces of evil and darkness that is the GOP today, I’m as drawn to politics as Jason is to teenage counselors at a summer camp.

And since the blogs are my source for political news and analysis, I spend too much time here.

So read below to see if you’re a polical/Booman Tribune addict:

  1. You read your cellphone bill and realize most of your minutes were spent calling in response to “action items.”
  2. You have a crush on ReddHedd and Jane at FireDogLake.
  3. You’re sitting in a committee hearing at your state capital and realize you know more about the issue than the delegate who sponsored the bill.
  4. Your idea of a fun road trip is to head north with jsmdlawyer and DCDemocrat to make a pilgrimage to Maine to meet BillinPortlandMaine, 42, and the other New England Tribbers.
  5. You plan to see RenaRF’s band perform live at Caroline’s in Winchester, Va., on April 8 AND a meetup for citizens of lefty blogtopia on Saturday, May 27 in Baltimore’s Fells Point.
  6. You know skippy coined the phrase “blogtopia.”
  7. The telephone receptionist in your senator’s office not only recognizes your voice, but can accurately guess what you’re calling about and your position.
  8. You begin training at the gym to get in shape for election campaign canvassing.
  9. You choose your mechanic based on his opposition to George W. Bush and Republicans.
  10. You know the site is named after a dog.
