Yeah, I watched the Inauguration yesterday, but that was a party.

President Obama's *scuse me, squee coming on* speech was incredible and absolutely what we all needed to hear. That was my first favorite part.

My second favorite part was the quartet. I've seen Itzhak Perlman as a bitty kid on Sesame Street eons ago, and Yo Yo Ma is just amazing, as always. The clarinet (which I used to play) is the sweetest sounding I've probably ever heard. Enjoy!

Robin Williams hits ALLL the high spots in this post-election routine tapes over in England.

Couple words of advice while the YouTube loads:
1) Make sure all food and drink are away from your mouth
2) Make sure that laughing out loud will not get you fired

Kevin Werbach, part of President Change's FCC transition team, plays World of Warcraft.

That is just awesome on so many levels. There finally are people like me in Washington!

I suddenly typed this into my Twitter, and had to share here as well.

Today is the beginning of a new era... so let's act that way, and do the things we want to be proud of.

Lynda Carter was asked about Gov. Palin during an interview, and proceeded to throw down the total pwnage.

Money quote: What I hate is this demonization of everybody but one position. You’re un-American because you’re against the war. It’s such bullshit. Fear. It’s really such a finite way of thinking about God to think that your measley little mind can know the mind of God. It’s a very little God that way. I think that God’s bigger. I don’t presume to know his mind. Or her mind.

I've seen where Hillary Clinton went for the acclimation vote, which was pretty classy. "Love Train" starting up was a bit surreal, but hey, it worked. ;-)

I then saw the part after Joe Biden's speech, and you're going to have to forgive me for breaking out the wrestling smark-talk, but... oh my GOD! Obama with the run-in! The crowd POPS! Has he been secretly coached by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, because I'm having flashbacks. ;-) That was awesome. I wish I could've been there.

Now I need an Obama icon. We can do this!
