Inauguration Plans Everybody?

[timkona]

Tomorrow's the day. Where you goin? Dressin up? Tails or costume. Black cocktail dress, or formal gown? Parties just about everywhere you look here on Big Island.

Me? I'm dressing up as a Simon Legree.(jk) I'll be attending at Senor Billy's Restaurant. Should be a gas. I am most looking forward to a free bar tab. (See signature.)

All in all, I betcha it's gonna be real fun.

I'll be working. We do a live newspaper broadcast between 7-9 am - though most of us are wishing we could get some sort of descriptive-audio feed for our patrons. I believe ABC will be running one on their SAP.

There's a celebration on the lower level of the Hawaiian Monarch Hotel that I'm contemplating whether or not to go. If anybody else is interested, here's a list of some of the Inaugural gatherings on Oahu:

A small group of friends and I want to watch Obama's swearing in, live! I volunteered to have a 6:00Am breakfast party at my tiny hale! I've never been to a party, much less hosted one, that started that early! I so hope my alarm works!

I warned my neighbors and our condo's security dept.!

Did anyone see Obama's 5th grade, Punahou teacher, Pal Eldredge, interviewed in D.C. on Sunrise this morning? Grace Lee asked him how he thinks he'll feel tomorrow. Eldredge, a big, teddy bear of a guy, said he'll probably cry like a baby! Me, too! I have plenty of kleenex!

I will probably have the TV coverage on in my classroom all morning. Whatever one thinks of the incoming President (and I did not vote for him), the inauguration of a new President is not something that happens very often in this country. This will be my eighth and most of my students' second, 'though they were too young to remember the first.

Just watching it on tv. It's early enough that it does not interfere with my work schedule (other than waking up earlier) *g*

It's 4.10 p.m. here in England, which means I get to watch the ceremony in less than an hour. Noon in a bitterley cold Washington. So many thousands of people are there that the National Guard are doing crowd control.
Good luck feller. If I was a Yank, I would have voted for you.

Private grammar/high schools here in Cabo have given the students the day off, so they can watch this historic event! The Mexicans down here are just as excited about todays events as we gabachos.

President Obama!

DU was late to school. But I figured since she was watching intently from the comfort of the warm, cozy couch, on a chilly morning, well, what the hey.

And hat's off to Scriv. Keep those kids engaged in their future. Thought you was a Math Teacher.

Re: Inauguration Plans Everybody?

Usually at Work but was home today so watched thee main part of seeing Obama Sworn in.

Was that arranged or coincidence that Roberts who swore Obama who voted AGAINST his conformation? Seemed to be a awkard moment and it showed when Barrack flubbed a little at the begining.

Other than that great TV History in the making moment.

Actually, Roberts got the oath wrong and flubbed it. Obama repeated the oath as written not as Roberts recited.
