on random political trivia

Usually my posts won’t consist of political material, simply because I don’t feel comfortable discussing political issues, especially if it’s something I don’t really have enough knowledge and/or confidence talking about it.
However, I found this to be somewhat amusing.

I was at a meeting at one of my workplaces, and we were having a casual conversation about the US elections. My supervisor was talking about Obama, so I mentioned that Obama City (in Fukui prefecture, Japan), was “unofficially” supporting Obama, just because (need I say more?)
Then, one of the other advisors mentioned how a company in Fukui City, a city near Obama, made the glasses Sarah Palin was wearing, and was thus (supposedly) supportive of the Republicans.
Coincidence? Probably, but yes, rather amusing.

On some other randomness: So is this what the cat at my old host family’s place was trying to do to me when she tried to hop on my legs or something?
