Way to go, Obama! and the American people

In the excitement of the Presidential Inauguration, I went ahead and signed up at Facebook so I could post on the CNN live streaming page.   I  also posted on the New York Times wall via Facebook.   Pretty incredible technology.

This is what I posted yesterday on the New York Times wall:
I think this is great -- being able to share this way.  What a trip!  And you can see how old I am by that comment.  ; )   I am so excited to be sharing my excitement here.  This is the first Inauguration that I've felt a part of  and my first remembrance of a president was Eisenhower (!)   It's always been a bunch of pomp and fluff and dreariness, but this is different.

Way to go, Obama!   ... and Biden,  *and all the people*, including me, that worked for change and prayed for it and believed in it.  If we build it, they will come.  Now.  I'm excited about the presidency and the gov't.  What a change from the Ohio State massacre and Nixon.  I would say "black and white" but that metaphor really doesn't apply anymore.   How about 180 degrees!  Now we can begin to create the world we really want to live in.  Bless us all!

More as soon as I can dig my way out of my workload.....
