O+1

O+1. President elect, Barack Obama won the 2008 election by a huge margin last night. The victory is bitter-sweet in some ways because in my opinion, if there's anyone out there that understands what it's like to fight for this country and to publicly serve its people, it is John McCain. But JM seems to be one of those guys that's just hounded by bad timing or forces beyond his control. The GOP seems to be the spanking-child and JM got lined up to take a spanking a long with all GOP members. He should have have won the primary eight years ago but for some reason, he didn't--this, I'll never understand.

Nobody talked about this at work because we don't usually mix politics or religion at work unless you know exactly that who you're talking to won't be offended by your views. We have a good environment at work and most of us know how we all stand or at least, have a good understanding.

Blake did ask me to bring some Obama victory cookies so I complied. Amy makes really good cookies and I like it when people compliment her culinary skills--they're honed and I'm too happy to enjoy every meal she makes.
