My daughter and her two daughters live in Boston. They are always complaining but I can't get them to leave. I guess if you don't know any better it is the place to be.
Whoever gets elected will have one huge mess to clean up. From what I've seen so far Congress doesn't look like it is up to the task either. The country is so divided it will take a magician to get us all going in the same direction.
As said above, the metal box should not shock you. If it does then you have a gounding problem and should get an electrician to have a look. If you accidentally poke a metal object inside the box it is possible you touched a hot wire and that will shock you but is normal. Turn off the breaker(s) to those outlets before working around them.
I don't care for either. But I don't want the same party in control of both houses and the white house. They'll pass so much crap it will make your head spin. We need some checks and balances IMHO.
