"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

connie, I am in the same boat. Why did I think the comments at the Dallas Morning News would be anything but a bunch of bitter cynics? Did they not listen to the part of the speech that said the ground shifted under them.

The sheer number of people saying, "I hope his policies don't work" kill me. Really? I can see saying, "I'm don't think this will work and here's why." or "This hasn't worked in the past." or "This will have these unintended consequences." But hoping a plan to provide hundreds of thousands of jobs doesn't work????

WTF!?! Man!

What is even happening?

Could someone teach Matthews some saliva-control, please. He's sounding more and more like Daffy Duck.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Must remember to never read the comments on news stories on the Net.

No kidding. Man, they're always bad.

My take on it: D'oh, I really wish the swearing-in hadn't been so jumbled. Man, Warren's kind of a blah speaker. Maybe it's part and parcel of his casual, Hawaiian-shirt-wearing deal, but it's not my beautiful pie.

Obama, on the other hand, is. Man, what a guy. I still can't believe it! I remember months ago posting about that feeling of maybe, what if... possibly... could he do it? Wouldn't that be... wow? And now... wow!

Okay, I'll stop with the verklempt. What a guy.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I actually didn't mind that at all. Reminded me of my wedding vows.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I have been reading here all morning as I've been watching the inaugural events. I love the buffista play by play.

I thought I was emotional though the actual inauguration, but it was actually later when a reporter kept talking about "The President" this and "The President" that. The fact that he was referring to someone I can respect just gutted me.

Ok, I'm just watching this on tv, why do I feel so emotionally drained???

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I thought "J-word" was meant to be irreverent, not offensive. But of course, there is a fine line, always. Which side am I on if I say it sounds like the disciples got a show on Showtime?

Would it be offensive to anyone if I COMMed this? Because I laughed and laughed.
