          OC Best of 2012 Ballot available only in the print edition, apparently

3)  Local Loco

4)  "Raider Nation"

          I am a Raider fan. Do you care? What effect does this have on your perception of me?
          Do I seem more violent? Dangerous? Menacing? Unhinged? 

          It's true. The Raiders have built a reputation for mayhem and chaos amongst their players 
          and fans. But is it accurate? I just met a couple of Al's Pals who seem to have both
          oars in the water. They have raised two apparently wonderful young adults from pre-
          conception to near-maturity, but because they live in the Bay Area, their football  team is -
          - of course -- the Raiders.

          I even get to help watch one of their progeny as they deliver the other one to ASU for 
          further training. I will do a little digging and see if they are as crazy as the rest of the world 
          thinks they are. 

          As for me, for the first time in years, I am excited about the upcoming football season.
          Updates to follow. What could go wrong?

No money was paid to anyone for anything here, so look somewhere else!

"The Journey," by Douglas Whiting can be read with great love and respect and hope for your enjoyment. This time with complete endorsement, authorization, and  permission from the author, their heirs and publisher! All me!

We did not pay anyone for use of the opening music from Cake ("Wheels," off of "Pressure Chief," or the closing, either (Mr. Scruff's tune "Kalimba"). Our bad.
