“For as long as I live, I will never forget that in no other country on Earth is my story even possible”
Eventually, I’ll have that framed. But for now, posting it here will do.
If you get a chance, Early Returns has a great post about the inauguration here.
In case you missed here, here was my election coverage:
- Mike’s 2008 Election Wrap-up
- Mike’s 2008 Election Extravaganza, the trilogy!
- Mike’s 2008 Election Extravaganza, the sequel
- Mike’s 2008 Election Extravaganza
And in my mind I keep going back to the lyrics from Hairspray:
You can’t stop today
As it comes speeding down the track
Child, yesterday is hist’ry
And it’s never coming back
‘Cause tomorrow is a brand new day
And it don’t know white from black
So anyway, this post is a bit disjointed, but a hopeful one. I’ll watch all the inauguration festivities during the week when my schedule permits, but in the meantime, enjoy the random pictures and videos after the break!

And the iconic HOPE. I tend to like this I think becasue I’ve seen LOVE in NYC:
