There Were Rarities All Over the Place Today.......
Well, history was indeed made today, as we inaugurated our first African-American president. Maybe the coverage was a bit over the top the last few days. I appreciated the work the networks did today, but I couldn't care less to hear from Ashton and Demi talk about how they will dedicate themselves to ending poverty in the Third World on Oprah.....
But, how do we know that today was a sign that today was maybe just little bit special. It snowed in the Pee Dee. If I remember correctly, it was the first measurable snow we've had in 9 years - before George Bush took office. Or as one friend saw it , "It snowed today because Hell Just Froze Over."
Yeah, there are signs all over that things are different today. Good or bad, we'll see.. I missed of the ceremonies, but iI caught most of Obama's address. It was okay, but it's hard to blow people away the 500th time you've played Stairway to Heaven... I liked to hear him say that if there are programs that aren't working, they need to end. However, i think he'll have a lot harder time doing that than he thinks...
Right now, we'll all feeling warm and fuzzy, but business will start very, very soon. That fuzzy feeling needs to stay... Maybe it'll snow again tomorrow. Hope it goes smoother than this did.. Even the best minds in America get nervous, eh ?
