    I just want to mention that it's great to see the many familiar faces in the crowd. It puts their lives in perspective, too.

    Hooray! A great night for America. It could only have been better if Yao had managed not to suck ass all night long and the Rockets had pulled out a win.

    Well, that was freaking amazing. So much for the "I won't cry" statement I made earlier.

    It's amazing what this guy has done with half of the country backing him.

    Just think of what he can do when he takes office and more and more people begin to get behind him... :eek: :D

    I was about to go to bed, but this deserves one more 10.5% abv beer.

    Screw it, I'll be late tomorrow. But whatever.

    A great moment. It took 40 years, but we have finally found the road again.

    My dad who was born in 1935 in jasper,tx as the youngest of 8 and the only one to graduate from hs and college said, "we can stop lying to our kids now." I thought he was being funny, but when I thought about it as a black man, its finally true you can be anything you want to be. Its one thing to say you can be tiger,mike, or lebron, but to say that the original man is now the most powerful man again is amazing.
