I've got a class scheduled for 12:20. It has been rescheduled for 1 instead!
Lordy, I wouldn't be at that event for all the tea in China. Maybe 'cause I hate crowds. Maybe. |

Heard from an employee at another hospital ... Secret Service called to do a services assessment ... how many medical beds do you have, how may psych beds, what's the surge capacity of your emergency room ... this other hospital is 150 miles away. I guess that this is called planning for the worst case scenario.
Couple of times in the past patients have ended up admitted simply because the Secret Service did a sweep prior to a presidential visit in the area. We've heard they've also put up all the threatening nuts in hotels.

"We've heard they've also put up all the threatening nuts in hotels." I didn't know we had that many hotels in America.

It doesn't seem too hard to get an invite, seating is somewhere around the capitol...you could be standing in one direction or the other....

Yeah! Go to the inauguration! Feel the genuine history of what a gold rush pioneer felt like every time he went to town to buy food...
You want how much for a hot dog?!?!!! |

Check eBay for all the others.
ETA: eBay has banned the sale of inauguration tickets, at least so far

But don't you think the news media just might cover this event?
I'd like a nickel for every TV camera in Washington today. Yeah, I remember when Obama was sworn in. How exciting, tell me all about it... do you remember what you were wearing? Uh... nothing.

I'll be glad when the honeymoon is over, so I won't have to hear the media gushing 24/7

I just hope that it ends. I'm presuming that the gushing will continue through any awful, stupid, damaging thing that he does.

I have watched and waited for so long for Americans to take back the ownership of their Country. I feel that we have now reached that point where we can begin to build upon the foundation built by our Founding Fathers.
I served my Country in Vietnam when I was called to duty. It was there that I learned what damage an ill conceived war can do to ourselves and to others. While there I lost my legs to a landmine, and I feel a great sorrow for those who serve in Iraq and Afganistan who are placed in harms way in those ill conceived wars. I pray that this intelligent and thoughtful man can lead us back to the stature we deserve in the world. It is time that science and intelligence once again reside in the White House. GOD BLESS BARACK OBAMA, and GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. |
