Starting with the personal tonight:
Wedding anniversary next week. First the inauguration then our aniversary. We were married during a cold snap, only two people stayed and threw rice at us because it was bitter cold. If it snows next week that will be fine as it will be snowy and cold just like it was twenty-five years ago. Yup. Actually we've been together for 35 years, hard to believe but true. Ten years together before we got married. Not bad, its been up, down, happy, sad, and everything in between. Was going to say tough/easy, but upon reflection I can't remember it ever actually being all that "easy" so I'll leave that one alone. Anyway in my early fifties, four grown children later and life is still good.
Watched some more clips of the plane landing from La Guardia, NY into the Hudson River yesterday. Absolutely incredible. So many people did their jobs so well and effectively. I wish all emergencies were handled with such dedication, ability and compassion. The pilot Chesley Sullenberger III did a fantastic job landing that plane. These are the real heros of the world not the "Joe the Plumbers" that just babble away and do nothing yet still become sad celebrities. Please give the pilot whatever the highest public service honor is for NY Governor Paterson, he deserves it.
Listened to the whole Bush speech from last night. Not impressed. But as he keeps saying History will tell... he doesn't seem to lose sleep over the mess he's made so I suppose re-writing history is the easiest way to deal with the whole mess. Hopefully with only four days left this administration can't screw anything else up.
G'night,
Laura
