I disliked being little more than a piggy bank for the Conservative to try and hit once or twice a month with a letter and once a month with a phone call. Fuck off already. Belonging to a party has to mean more than being a source of funds. Sadly, I never really felt like that since the merger. Unless I kept myself in the party the party never invited me to participate. The old pc's, all twelve of us were a close knit bunch and it was a blast being part of it. But I digress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put simply....I'm out of time for anything requiring a major time commitment due to my work schedule. I'll be sitting this election out. No worries ye faithful, I know who I'll be voting for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've started a new blog (&lt;a href="http://bemusedindifference.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://bemusedindifference.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;), which will likely be updated (or started if you prefer) tomorrow night. Topics will include whatever the hell I feel like writing about. Probably I will write mostly my futile attempts at succeeding in ball hockey, horse racing, politics, video games, business and in particular the auto business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are my days in politics done...no, but I think it's on pause for now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until next time, this is the Reasonable Tory, signing off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RT&lt;br /&gt;blah blah&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7927130-113376004132823489?l=reasonabletory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://reasonabletory.blogspot.com/feeds/113376004132823489/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7927130&amp;postID=113376004132823489' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7927130/posts/default/113376004132823489'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7927130/posts/default/113376004132823489'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://reasonabletory.blogspot.com/2005/12/reasonableyestorysort-of.html' title='Reasonable...yes...Tory....sort of'/><author><name>Bemused</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10680810225180784422</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry></feed>
