Ten Days and Counting...

Well, technically, it's not 10, as this one's almost over----but, do you plan-on watching the inauguration (whether or not, you watch it live)?

If you are gonna watch, other than the obvious, what are you most looking-forward to seeing?

I'm not going to knock myself over to watch it---but if happens to be on when I'm by a TV, I might watch it.

In his Inaugural Address, Trump is going to sound very moderate; he will be more cautious than normal.

If he insists that we will land on Mars by the end of this decade, I might like him a little better.

I stood in below-freezing temperatures at the 1997 presidential inauguration at the U.S. Capitol (I had meetings in Washington that week, had been invited to attend, and wanted to appear slightly grateful to the White House, okay? Besides, I was bundled up beyond belief; "I can't put my arms down!" Hehe.). After just 30 minutes of standing under a tree on the Capitol's northwest lawn, I learned that I had severe difficulty standing or walking. I must have appeared intoxicated for the first block walking back to my hotel after I called it quits earlier than anticipated. Subsequent inaugurations have only reminded me of the physical pain involved with my only in-person attendance. Pavlov was right.

Still, while I believe that Trump was the better choice as president (I actually didn't vote at the federal level), I amn't exactly interested in yet another celebration which will involve very little about the individual at the center of our collective attention. Instead, the world will be listening to "the commentariat" talk on and on about "how the president got here after such a grueling campaign." In the topic's survey, I answered "Maybe" because I am, in fact, a little interested, despite how rote the whole ordeal will be.

<--- A 9mm Glock pointed at his throat will get him to sit in front of a TV and watch that nonsense.

It is a historic moment as was Obama's inauguration, of course I will be watching.

^^ That's exactly how I feel about it!!

I didn't vote for President Obama----but, I certainly wasn't gonna miss his inauguration.

I wonder if lefties will be disappointed when he doesn't rip off his suit to reveal a Nazi uniform and announce the beginning of the Mexican Final Solution.

^^ LOLOLOL

Most likely not, I'll be working, and we have no TV's at the job site.

Maybe, maybe not.
Just knowing that there will be a lot of liberals watching it just to torture themselves (the same as why they watch Fox News and listen to Limbaugh and other conservative shows) will be good enough for me.
