random means "having no definite aim or purpose," (1655), taken from "at random" (1565), "at great speed" (thus, "carelessly, haphazardly"). In 1980s college student slang, it somehow, and sadly, acquired a distinct sense of "inferior, undesirable." (Online Etymology Dictionary, Douglas Harper) Well, okay, fine, Mr. Online Etymology Dictionary person, but THIS is the 21st Century. It's a whole new ball of wax.

Woohoo Cor! Woohoo cute little girl with the Obama sign!
I so wish I could go to an Obama rally. If he gets sworn in as president (think positive...WHEN), I swear I am going to drive out to be there.
I worked the phone lines a couple days for the Obama campaign. I can't wait until Tuesday to vote!!!! Thanks for putting this post up!
