YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

It feels like being ten pounds lighter. Like ten pounds of shame have been lifted off each of our shoulders.
Use your head, can't you, use your head! You're on earth, there's no cure for that!

It feels great to no longer feel like an ideological outsider in my own country.

Fuck you Bush.

PROUD MOMENTS.
"You want me to recognize you and I won't. I won't acknowledge you! I deny you. So you keep begging and begging. The door is slammed on you. I want nothing to do with you. You will die unrecognized by me."

I just got back from an impromptu parade we had at Rutgers.  It was fucking awesome.

It feels like I'm on drugs, but I'm not!

I teared up during Obama's acceptance speech. So great.

Also, Mcain was a gracious loser. I thought his concession speech was really good.

I am very, very relieved.  And very, very happy.  And very, very grateful.  And very, very scared.

You could sense that the McCain crowd was seething with hate - at first I thought against Obama, but then it felt like they were soooo pissed at McCain. I think McCain will more or less be kicked out of the party after this.

Anyway: YAY FOR AMERICA! YOU DID IT!

Phillies won, Obama won, an awesome Batman sequel came out, Chinese Democracy is coming out, companies were forced to give away free tacos, free coffee and free Dr. Pepper, holograms arrived and are poised to take over the world...2008 feels like The Year The Future Finally Arrived.

And we still have December ahead of us where they could close things out the only way that makes sense, with the announcement that jetpack technology has been perfected. Now is the time.
This may be the year I will disappear.
