cmk418There is something about the National Anthem being done in the UC that sends chills down my spine. (More so if I'm actually there) The lights are out, there's sort of a blueish tint to the place, one spotlight's on the singer. Then it starts - at first just a whistle here or there, then gradually picking up momentum, around the line "the rockets' red glare", the crowd cheers provide a nice counterpoint to the (virtually unsingable) anthem. It increases in volume, hitting its loudest at the word "free", and sustaining that through the last line. Maybe it's one of those things where you have to be there.
The Dems are advertising during commercials. I've never really seen the candidate for Governor before, but he's got a lovely personality. They should not let him speak. Ever. Just like the former Governor of Texas. The thing is, if people judge this by appearance alone, it's no contest. Arnold would wipe the floor with this guy.
Does the two referee system help if both referees can't see what's happening? Puck crossed the line. Not by much, but it was a goal. Sick.
Something I learned today. Internet audio does not synch up with televised action after it hits the first "buffering" moment. Otherwise I'd totally be listening to the Hawks announcers right now.
I've delayed posting the link to the Said thing long enough. Off to do that now.
No one's going to try to get Murphy & McManus into bed? No one?
