Powell, and Limbaugh, and Keybank, and Deferment (oh my!)

Colin Powell is backing Barach Obama for president. Yay Powell for standing up to your party and publicly supporting Obama. I think that says a LOT, not only about Obams but also about the Republican party. They're so fucked that even their most public and high ranking party members are turning their backs. Rush Limbaugh says Powell is backing Obama because both men are black. First of all, Rush Limbaugh is an ass clown with a narcotics problem who hates everyone who isn't a fat white man like himself. Second, and more importantly, considering his knowledge of government, I find it hard to believe that Powell would back an unqualified candidate based on his skin color.

In other news, the ass clownery continues: keybank sucks at life. After three months and multiple phone calls, keybank finally told me that the reason i haven't gotten my refund check is that my mom never signed the promissory note. Funny story there, my mom also talked to keybank months ago, asking them to send a paper copy because the online system wouldn't work. When I explained calmly to them the flaws of their customer service and made suggestions for the future, I was blatantly ignored and hung up with as quickly as possible. Whatever happened to "the customer is always right??" Moral of the story: don't use keybank.

On a lighter note, today I recalled a joyful work: deferment - the act of delaying or postponing. Put into context, it means (assuming I am accepted) I could stay in Oneonta next semester, earn some money, enjoy the entirety of senior year, and then go to grad school! This lightbulb came on this morning and most likely lowered my blood pressure to a normal human range. yeeehaawwww.
