- Washington State ranked third in voter turnout for the 2004 election with 82% of registered voters participating. Colorado was first with 89%; Oregon was second with 85%. This wasn't on the box, but Ohio was 9th with 64.8% (and 1st in the longest lines division).
- In Australia, it is illegal not to vote.
- In Malta, it is not illegal not to vote, but 93% of people voted this year, anyway.
- We vote in November because farmers are too busy the rest of the year.
- We vote on Tuesday so the men and their horses won't have to skip church in order to make it to the county seat on time.
- The 19th Amendment gave women the right to vote in 1920, but only 1 in 3 women voted that year. Again, not on the box, but women have voted in higher numbers than men in all but one presidential election since 1980.

We love Pagliacci and order it almost weekly, in fact, we are "frequent piers".
I'm glad you liked the salad. We really enjoyed your chili, I think I need to get a slow cooker. Max and I ate the leftover cornbread for breakfast the next morning, and I'm embarrassed to admit that Shawn and I ate ALL of the delicious pie in one sitting, while watching a funny BBC sitcom, "Black Books". Pumpkin pie is hands down one of my favorite foods.
Max slept great after spending the evening at your house!
