Every once in a while I remember that Barack Hussein Obama is about to be sworn in as the 44th President of the United States. For some reason, that fact sometimes slips my mind.
When the realization of it comes to me, I feel an internal shudder, like when you realize that something that you never thought possible is not only possible, but reality.

I’ll be in town just before the inaugural, for a Change.org event at the National Press Club to announce the winners of our Ideas for Change in America contest. Sadly, I’ll have to go home after that.
Let me know through Facebook or whatever if you have time for coffee, a bite or a beer. I’m right around the corner from NPC.
