Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Now tagless for your comfort.

So sorry, Cashmere. I could make a list of dozens for you to send back of African American scientists who rock my world and whose names begin with "Dr."

Thanks, Allyson. I just hit "reply all" and said, "that's incredibly racist." I got a few sympathetic replies from other family members so at least I don't have to disown the whole lot of them.

I'm watching coverage on C-SPAN. No commentary is interesting.

Dammit, I wish I could join the watch-n-post. We were warned weeks ago not to stream video, and I don't think anybody's playing it. Sigh.

(But I am taping the BBC America coverage, so I'll watch tonight.)

NPR described it as a crown. NPR is all about the hats, apparently.

I am very disappointed by the boo-ing. Seriously folks, he's leaving, show some class.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Don't boo, crowd! Cheer because he's LEAVING!

Man, I don't know if I'd be able to resist, if I were there.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Shrift/aurelia, Wednesday works for me too.

Cool! I should be free sometime between 6 and 6:30.

No streaming video for me. I'm sitting in the theatre waiting for scenic work to die down and electrics work to start, but the wireless connection here is verrrrry slow.

I did manage to snag the last Tribune at the 7-11 though.
