Only on Twitter

So, those of you on Twitter know that it happens from time to time that someone you don't know will start following you. I'm still new to Twitter myself, so I'm not sure how these people/accounts find you and why they'd be interested in the musings of me, which mostly consist of what I had for lunch that day.

Anyway. Today I was scrolling through my followers, and saw one that I don't recognize. His/Her name is WeKnowtheTruth, and that intrigued me a bit, so I clicked on their profile. There in the top left hand corner was his profile pic. I squinted a bit (these profile pictures are so small), did a double-take, thought, "Nah, it couldn't be," and then zoomed in on the picture for a closer look.

This is what I saw:


Yep. That cracked me up.

XOXO,

McCain's Concession Speech

I stayed up late last Tuesday night and watched as the election map filled in with reds, yellows, and blues. So, I was still glued to my television set (actually, I had grown rather bored of the pundits and had popped in a movie on my laptop) when the official announcement of Obama's win came through. It was this, though, that opened my bleary, tired eyes, and for a moment filled me with hope. What am I talking about? The concession speech of John McCain which was filled with dignity and grace. It was like watching a totally different man than the one I had seen during the debates, and this time, I was proud of him. If you have a moment, I recommend watching it, as I do think it should go down in history as a great and memorable speech and, one that graciously ushers in the new President-elect, Barack Obama.
