oh yeah, my comments were nothing to do with Obama's speech. Just that I hate K and 5th graduation ceremonies.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
8th grade graduation is just about when we'd be leaving prep school for high, and that was a huge transition. Rocking it with the big kids, small all over again.
Read an inane quote in the elevator about Oprah saying that every (every!) mistake she's made has been because she ignored her inner voice. Yup, she has a 100% inner voice that she has the luxury to ignore from time to time.
How smug.
I should possibly get over that.

well maybe her inner voice has 20-20 hindsight, and likes to say I Told You SO.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Lori Mehmen, who lives in the small farming town of Orchard in northeastern Iowa, looked out her front door and saw a funnel cloud bearing down — and evidently had the presence of mind to grab her digital camera and capture this shot before taking cover.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
That's a hell of a photo (and I hope she got inside right away after!)

The status is NOT quo.
Wow, Tom. That's an incredible picture. Also? SCARY AS HELL.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yoinks! I can't imagine becoming so blase about tornados that you think "must catch that on camera!" when you see one instead of RUN AWAY, but then again I suppose people in other states have a similar feeling when we Californians are all "so did you feel that quake? I was in the shower and the shampoo fell on my toes, ha ha etc"

Sox made me laugh. Isn't Oprah one of those people who describes herself as "evolving" when us less-evolved folks might just say we've changed our minds?

Speaking of inner voices. I'm not sure "presence of mind" is really the way to describe that thought process, cool pics or no.
