    Default Oh, by the way... I tried to say I'd be there, waiting for

    We Americans are getting a new president today. Oh, and he's black too.

    So, if you live anywhere on the face of the Earth and are planning on watching TV today, you'll probably be watching the inauguration or related events; it'll pretty much be on every single channel.

    I'll probably watch it live, but I still don't know at what time he's sworn in.

    Swearing in is at 12:00 noon (eastern time, of course).

    I'll be watching it. I don't want to miss history in the making.

    I was going to make a 'where were you when it happened' thread, but I guess most people would say 'work' or 'school'

    I'm kind of bummed I'm going to be in class, and unfortunately (probably) not with a professor hip enough to cancel lecture so we can watch it. Le sigh.

    More importantly, who's watching Biden's swearing in at 11:30?

    A woman called into one of our local radio shows to say that she arrived at the capitol to for the inauguration at 4:00 am and she's already two to three hundred yards away from the capital.

    I'm going to miss it. Damn it.

    Oh well, it's not like it won't be shown again. I can probably find it recorded online somewhere too.

    Congratulations, the United States of America has finally caught up with the majority of the world with regards to being able to put someone who isn't a white guy in charge of their country. 'tis a big thing for America, though, and I'm sure I'll read all about it in the newspaper tomorrow. Better than reading about death, famine and rape as normal.

    Hmm, I'll be in lunch, so I might go watch it in a teachers class and grab my food.

    Not in that particular order, mind you.

    It's airing midnight or 2 AM my time, so I'll just have to watch it in school tomorrow. D; They said they would play it for us, but you know how schools are! I'll probably just end up watching it at home tomorrow evening.
    wheee!
