"Sip champagne."

I've got a bottle in the fridge right now. I had one for election night 2000 but I went to bed thinking that Gore had won. Then I got a call from my daughter, who was in Hawaii at the time, at about 3:00 AM. She was all excited telling me that they had changed Florida from Gore to Bush. So I immediately turned on the TV. Anyway, to make a long story somewhat shorter, I didn't get to drink the champagne for weeks. I sure hope I don't have to wait to celebrate this time.

We had two bottles of champagne ready to go in 2000. We didn't get to drink them on election night, but did drink one on the night of the USSC decision and the Gore concession. At the time, we agreed that we would drink the other one in 2004 when Bush wins reelection.

I have kept that remaining bottle in my refrigerator for the last 4 years! We plan to drink it tonight! (I hope it is still good)
