Here's a little enhancement for your continued pleasure in the LIEbrary opening...operation "rain on Bubba's parade." There was a couple of people in the office today who went (one of them works in the office and had tickets because of her involvement in the historical society) and they were saying it was the most miserably cold they could ever remember being. Even with raincoats and umbrellas, they got soaked and their shoes were soaking wet and their feet were freezing. They said that even inside the tent at the reception, it was so cold it was hard to even eat. She said it took an hour to get to the shuttle to take them back to the car.

I like this lady so I didn't want to apopear to be enjoying her obvious suffering (I wasn't), but it was hard to keep from giggling, because I was thinking of all those people there who must have been suffering similarly, and I was enjoying that thought immensely. I had to bite my tongue really hard, although I couldn't resist throwing in that I wouldn't walk across the street to see Bill Clinton. I did manage to keep myself from saying that only an idiot would spend hours sitting in the pouring rain to honor a scumbag like Clinton if they didn't have to.

He was in Williamsburg, Va. when he ran the first time. I was just across the street. There wasn't a very large crowd, but even then I knew he was bad news and would not think of crossing the street (a narrow one).
