Reasonable...yes...Tory....sort of

After getting hammered with phone calls and mail outs asking me for yet another hundred bucks I got a little PO'd and have decided to sit this election fight out. 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.

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.

I've started a new blog (http://bemusedindifference.blogspot.com/), 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.

Are my days in politics done...no, but I think it's on pause for now.

Until next time, this is the Reasonable Tory, signing off.
