so you think the beast can be unleashed

i wish everyone who's voted (or even read the post about the dance off) could see amy sweating bullets these days as the countdown comes close to an end, and the votes aren't even close to get this old dogg on the dance floor . she's bitten her fingernails all the way down to the bone, and she's such a nervous wreck. all this stress stems from her deep desire to see me unleash this beast in such a way that hasn't been seen in the united states since hurricane katrina (although taiwan came close recently with typhoon morakot). there are scientists & geologists from all over the world are running tests and experiments to try to gauge what the death tolls we be if the leash should come off of this beast. me being the realist that i am, know that there is no way that there could be 23 votes (not even 10 people read this blog), so i am lowering the bar down in order to try to even out the playing field. that being said, the new vote threshold will now be a minimum of 10 votes, but they still have to be from 10 different people. right now the readers are about half of the way there with everyone who has voted so far throwing caution to the wind in the name of being a part of history. the countdown continues on through sometime this coming sunday (aug 23), after which if the votes aren't there, then the beast goes back in the vault for a min of 10 years, just like all those lame disney cartoon movies. i do promise that if by a miracle there's at least 10 votes, and the majority are for the beast to dance, then you will not only be a part of history, but you will be more entertained & in awe than any of the boring disney cartoons (pinocchio being the only exception) that we were all forced to watch as children. just to sweeten the pot, connor has signed up to appear beside (as long as he can keep up) me on the dance floor for this momentous event. let the games begin.
