Inauguration Hangover

As anyone who reads this blog knows I am a TV junkie.
But I think yesterday I broke my own record of being glued to the televsion.

Here are some tidbits that I found interesting in my local DC newspaper today.

1. Over 2 million people and NOT 1 arrest!
2. 30 children got away from there parents - all were reunited without incident and with the help from others in the crowd or security/police
3. The 68 yr. old woman who fell onto the tracks of the metro was unharmed. The man who helped her arrived in DC to help with the security of the inauguration. The day before he had just learned what to do should someone fall onto the tracks. I know that woman must be extremely thankful he was there!
4. Restaurants, hotels and bars locally knew all the roads getting into the District were going to be closed so they asked that their wait staff and employees spend the night so all could be sure to be there to help them assist the crowds. The employee's did spend the night and the managers, owners etc of said business's paid them, made it fun for them and feed them. The day of the event all employees as well as businesess did a rousing business and made some serious cash. How's that for good karma?

People were saying it felt like the 60's ...... you know, Woodstock without the drugs and mud just Love and Community :-)
