Inauguration Day is finally here

I hope you are doing the same thing that I am doing this morning and watching the historic Inauguration of Barack Obama. I woke up giddy to watch the events unfold and am doubly pleased to have the morning off work to watch it live. Flipping back and forth between MSNBC, ABC and CNN, Charlie Gibson is throwing out some interesting Presidential trivia, Aretha Franklin has arrived to sing with a gigantic bow on her head, she's wrapped up like a gift and Anderson Cooper is just rambling on about the VIPs.
Well I'm getting back to watching, enjoy the day and relish the moment in history you've watched.

Flash Back Friday #13

Last nights DNC acceptance speech by Barack Obama was absolutely fantastic. Powerful, energetic, touching, inspiring and unforgettable. I, like million of others was riveted.
Here is a flash back of Barack's famous keynote address at the 2004 DNC.

Did you watch the DNC?

I enjoyed last nights coverage (on multiple channels CNN, MSNBC, PBS...) of the Democratic National Convention from Denver.
I have to admit Ken Burns video tribute to Edward Kennedy moved me to tears. Watching Ted Kennedy give what is likely his last speech at a convention also moved me. But it was Michelle Obama who impressed me the most. Well spoken, intelligent and incredibly dedicated to her family and her country watching Michelle's speech was worth the ridiculously long "musical interludes" that I swear were longer and more frequent than the intermission in Gone with the Wind. Michelle was inspiring, funny, humble, fiercely loyal and just fascinating to watch. If you aren't a fan of this remarkable woman then get on Youtube and watch her speech.
I'm looking forward to Hillary tonight, should be a loud crowd when she takes the stage.
