I Guess It's Real

January 20th, 2009.  

Put all the rhetoric, the promises, the politics, the disagreements and the skepticism in public office aside. Today was an historic day. Though we may have had our fill of congratulatory calls to mark 'the first African American' to do this and that, something pretty fucking grand happened today.

Be happy you're alive to see it. Be happy your family is around to share the experience. I certainly am. 

Time to see how the man goes about the business of the country. Best of luck.
