Today, once again, New Hampshire will make its will known to an eager media and a largely apathetic public. It should be irrelevent, a nonevent. Yet, the second story on CNN.com today is about how McCain and Obama both won in Dixville Notch (population 75) and in Hart's Location (population 42). In Dixville, McCain won with 4 votes, while Obama won with 7. A total of 14 people voted. Now then, if 51 of the 75 residents of Dixville Notch can't get excited enough about voting for either candidate, even though their votes would be widely heralded and discussed, The Common Man wonders why the hell CNN and other major news outlets should give a damn.
Once again, The Common Man will not stoop to giving a prediction for the final result. He finds predictions droll and fears they may make him look foolish, should they go awry.
In the meantime, The Common Man will placate you with pictures of the inside of his knee, MRI'd yesterday:
By the way, if anyone out there is either a) is an orthopedist or b) knows what a healthy knee is supposed to look like could let The Common Man know if his Common ACL is torn or intact, that would be terrific.
Welcome to the blog for the common man (woman, child, and pet), a place to discuss politics, culture, and life.

what did you do to your knee?
Mark
Skiing accident. The Common Man's binding did not release and now he is hoping that his ligaments are only partially torn or strained. A follow up doctor's visit on Friday will provide more details.
It's a good thing your wife will be a doctor soon in the event you need surgery.

Well, The Uncommon Wife is probably looking to cut on The Common Man, but not in a constructive or reconstructive fashion.
1) Yes, but I won't be a real doctor.
2) You have a sexy knee
