Inauguration Day

It's nice to once again have a President who's a pleasure to listen to.

With today's inauguration scheduled for smack dab in the middle of the workday, I despaired of being able to watch Barack Obama's speech. Luckily my boss seem to be a huge Democrat and set up a TV in the middle of the office.

About 20 people or so gathered around the set for nearly an hour. There were a few comments, a few jokes at the beginning, but the office was silent as Obama spoke.

Inspiration! Coherence! It's something I'll have to get used to from the White House.

  1. I got to go to the inauguration!! It was cold and tiring, but very exciting. I went with a group of local people who took a bus down to D.C., and interviewed them about their experiences. Very cool!

    Obama is an amazing speaker. Bush was so appallingly bad that the contrast between the two is absolutely out of this world.

  2. I didn't get to see any of it... was working. But it does start to feel like waking up from a really bad dream! Inspiration, coherence... not to mention honesty! Yaaaay.
