Answer: Nothing, since u can&#8217;t change her mind anyway. Haha, believe me, I tried. Which explains why a couple nights ago, on Thursday, September 11, 2008, Lisa wanted me to bring out the ladder, so she could dust off the &#8220;pot shelves&#8221; along the highest parts of my house! Fortunately, it was amusing enough to pull out my Canon DSLR, lol. Plus a photogenic girl doesn&#8217;t hurt either, lol. ^_^<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>LOL, it was extra amusing as the TV-news played, since we would make fun of her favorite weatherman Peck, or argue about McCain-Obama presidential politics, in-between her carefree dust-swiping and my offbeat photo-shooting. Actually, she&#8217;s pretty fun to argue with, haha. Some people take politics way too seriously, and begin to rant or yell so badly that they&#8217;re no fun at all. Loosen up. Smile. They become too defensive or bitter. Or even worse, silent. I should know, since I used to be that way for about twelve years. Not pretty.<\/p>\n<p>But ever since I gave up politics and political affiliations a couple years ago, I&#8217;m no longer so politically tense or combative. I&#8217;m not so easily dragged or yanked into picking a side. Will I skip the vote this time? Will I trust Las Vegas and Nevada to do their best? Who knows? But life has been so much more fun and funny. I&#8217;m sure my blood pressure thanks me for that, hehe. Enjoy the rest of this 18-shot photoshoot! >_<\n\n\n \n\n<div align=\"center\"><a target=\"new\"
