Goodness, Malia and Sasha Obama are adorable! I'm not a huge "kids, awwww!" person, but seeing how much the Obama girls are enjoying the parade is sweet.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Giant foam Lincoln is a little weird.
I haven't seen or heard of this. It gave me a mental image of the blow up Christmas Homers though. So I give it two thumbs up.

Jesse isn't watching the parade.
The Illinois float cracked me up.

I just thought about this...you know who we didn't see at the ceremony today? Sarah Palin.

Why would she be there?
She doesn't hold federal office.

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

Well, I guess that's exactly it. I mean, we saw all the big players from the election season. I think I even saw Gov. Schwarzeneger. I'm sure if she had been "in favor" she would have been around - or at that dinner held for McCain last night.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Ray Nagin doesn't hold a federal office either, but I saw a shot of him earlier.

Given his Kennedy connections, that's not surprising at all.
