Get back to that party you sot!
(but thanks for bloggin it :-)
Yes, I did not expect to hear from you for two days.
Holy shit man, finally an end to the rule of the rotten cocksuckers!
Slainte dude.
I ain't afraid to say I shed a few tears in one of the most emotional moments in my life since the day they drug John F. Kennedy's dead body through the streets of Washington D.C. with the empty boots turned backwards in the stirrups on the horse dragging his caisson.
I was 3.
I still remember that.
Somewhere, Steve Gilliard is smiling ...
Congratulations, America!
Busted, I was 10, soon to be eleven.
Tonight we have been a part of something equal to the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215.
Tonight, we have been witness to and part of all of our boomer lives, to a moment in history that is singular.
This is the stuff of thousands of years of the hooman's simply being here.
By dawg, we might survive as a species.
Man this is precious in MY lifetime. Born '53.
And I thought I had seen a lot . . . . damn.
Here's to hope. Dawg bless all.
WoW! President Elect Obama! I am so excited I doubt I will get much sleep tonight. I told a friend, we have lived long enough to see a very special moment in history that will resonate through the ages.
thanks for the int'l headlines -- this is world shaking!
"finally an end to the rule of the rotten cocksuckers"
And a beginning to the rule of the OTHER set of rotten cocksuckers.
Entropy wins again, as always.
"Meet the new boss/Same as the old boss"
"We have lived long enough to see a very special moment in history that will resonate through the ages."
I don't know who said it, or the exact words of the quote, but someone said we will have achieved racial equality in the USA when a mediocre black man can go as far as a mediocre white man.
Today that scripture has been fulfilled in our hearing. ;)
Congratulations, folks, and may President Obama be everything you hope he will be.
I just now realized that my feelings of alienation on this and similar blogs may have less to do with Obama than I realized.
You see, you're all happy now.
I think I gravitated to this blog because during the Dubya years, it seethed with rage and despair.
I'm not like normal humans. Despair is food to me, and hope poison.
Perhaps I came from a parallel universe, and was stranded here by some baroque accident.
If I have a home at all, maybe it's time I found it.
May all of your lives be long and happy, if such is possible in an entropic universe. Farewell.
id- I pray for your healing and evolution.
President Obama.
I like writing that, looks good on the magic screen. :-)
DG- I'm glad your close to the action. Once it all settles down a bit I look forward to reading a longer recap of your evening in ChiTown.
id,
It's okay - it's good to keep a reality check in yer view. It's time for a celebration, and reflection. But let me say just two words for you;
antidepressants, dude.
they really do make a difference.
I'm not being snarky - I speak from experience.
namaste,

ID,
May I suggest the enneagram (Riso-Hudson) as a way out of your funk.
Little perspective on your personality type might help you with a gentler, kinder picture.
A mediocre black man? That is a cheap shot on the day of his triumph.
Try practicing a little grace... it'll grow on you after a little while.
US Blues: If there be healing for me, I will not find it in this life.
Skunqesh: Antidepressants? thanks, but HELL TO THE NO. They actually MAKE some people suicidal and/or homicidal, particularly the Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors [SSRIs]. Phil Hartman's wife was prescribed one of those just before she killed him and then herself. Del Shannon was prescribed one of those before he killed himself. I have also heard, although I'm not certain about this one, that O. J. Simpson was prescribed one of those before ahem, SOMEONE killed Nicole and that poor guy who was just there at the wrong time.
The SSRIs, IIRC, were approved during the Reaganoid era of [non]regulation by the FDA. I doubt Big Pharma tested them adequately, or were honest about the results if they did.
If I am mentally ill, at least my current illness does not make me dangerous to myself or others. "Better the devil you know" and all that.
Anon: I think I'll skip the grace, as I have an annoyingly persistent fungal colony growing on me already. I don't need any MORE growths. :)
Cheer up, emo kid.
Kid? I wish! I've completed nearly 45+1/2 solar orbits since I popped out of the womb.
