History

I remember when I was a kid , skateboarding at my friend's house (dating myself here). His mom came out and told us to come inside the house and said, "You're watching history." We watched as Nixon announced his resignation as president on tv, live.

I feel the same way about Obama's inauguration on the 20th, although this will be more of a positive part of history.

This not only seemed like the longest campaign ever, but the longest president elect transition ever. Just hope Obama can do something about this depression before the soup lines start again. And no, I'm not old enough to remember soup lines.
