But that wasn't because of anything particular in the prayer, I would have flipped off anybody giving a prayer at a government event. I'm just a hater.

That's ok... I mooned him! (well... I mooned the TV while he was giving his invocation...)

Yes! Obama!

I made it to the mall. I was standing right in front of the Washington monument

I have lots of photos I will post when I make it home. Right now it's lunch time.

Oh, and I have several dozen buttons to send to everyone.

You have nabbed onto an easily available interpretation (the white man sucks), but I really think Lowery was trying to emphasize unity, and may simply have been too clever by half. In any case, it is an incredibly insignificant part of the whole event, which certainly hit on the theme of unity and non-divisiveness again and again. Will you allow that this is even a teensy bit inspiring, scaeagles?

That older Obama daughter is going to be a raging beauty, you can tell already.

Teensy.

I'm not inspired, really. I do find it difficult - probably a short coming on my part - to find someone I didn't vote for to be inspiring. I didn't find Bush inspiring either, and am not sad to see him go, but I do not share the anticipation nor the optimism of a majority of the country.

It's okay. We'll let you stick around anyway. Here's hoping you'll be pleasantly surprised. (Also, here's hoping the rest of us won't be horribly disillusioned. Who knows?)

Well, I'm disappointed. He's been on the job for over two hours now, and the economy is still in the toilet.

My boss just received confirmation of my 2008 bonus (though he isn't allowed to give me the number yet). So Obama is the best president ever.
