Snippitts of Illusions

O.K I got to be honest. When I hear now that Arnold is running for governor of California, I laugh. Not a little chuckle, but a deep hearty laugh. It strikes me as funny, I think it strikes most Americans as funny. Why? It just doesn't make sense that a man I saw blowing up stuff nearly two weeks ago in a movie, is now setting out to run a political office. I can't take it seriously. But it is. I don't really care if he wins or doesn't, he might very well end up being a great leader. I think he probably will win in fact. It just seems overly surreal that a man I've seen play big dumb muscle bound action heros in movies all these years could be governor of a state..... Then I remember Jesse Ventura.
