Amazon has a Bestsellers list for everything

And I mean everything!

Even a list for "goth" music.

Last night's South Park, the season 12 finale, discussed the war between the Goth and Vampire kids.

Back in my day, some kids dressed up in all black and listened to Korn and called themselves Goth.

Today, thanks to Stephanie Meyer's Twilight (currently number one on Amazon's children's books with issues list), some kids who like the book and act "goth," but still have aspirations to be popular, call themselves Vampires. I could be totally wrong about that, but I think that's what the South Park episode was trying to teach me.

Now that I Google it, I notice Twilight the movie is coming out on Friday. So I guess that's why South Park released that episode this week.

Oh! And if you're interested in the progress of my next video -- it turns out I need a camera at least a notch better than my webcam to shoot it. So I'll have to wait until after Black Friday to film it.

If I'm going to be linking to Amazon, I should join their affiliate program, shouldn't I?

Barack Obama is going to be president

How does he look so calm and collected? He just won the presidential election!

I would like to think that I had something to do with Obama's win.
But alas, my video where I made fun of McCain and Palin has not even broken the 400 views barrier.

So I didn't.

I voted. I told my friends to vote Obama. I put up an Obama sign in my window.

But Obama's win was a blowout. It wasn't even close.
It really didn't matter what I did (or what anyone else did for that matter) because Obama was going to win with or without my (or our) help.

Seriously though, it is amazing what happened tonight and I hope all the folks that voted against Obama and are thinking "OH NO, WE'RE DOOMED!" can rest assured -- WE are not doomed.

But...If you make more than $250K, then yes, you are screwed!
