The gulf between Fl's two senators and its governor is similar to that which exists in New York...an obviously schizoid electorate...

[MasonGal]

I know - I'm noticing that, too. I'm sitting here crying my eyes out already.

[Miss Marple]

President visibly moved as families enter. Me too, as they are mixed up together, including an old man in a wheelchair and a tiny Indian lady in a sari.

Thank you, Howlin, for the thread. Don't know what everyone else is watching but C-SPAN and NASA-TV (same feed) are the places to watch. No whispering heads like Rather, Jennings, Brokaw, etc. When will they learn to shut up?

[ez]

Pray hard for him now - he will need it as he gives his remarks.

I don't know how he made it thru Sat's speech. I would have needed a sedative.

[Lauratealeaf]

The astronauts are definitely true heroes. The music that I heard playing is so touching. I heard one about the Lamb of God. Beautiful.

[mombonn]

How very humble he is to sit as part of the mourners, instead of hogging the spotlight.

[Miss Marple]

Rabbi from the navy giving the invocation. Very beautiful.

[The Game Hen]

I love my new "Happy Clappy" church with contemporary praise music but those old hymns are killers.

[MasonGal]

You've got THAT right!!! What a difference between the two!!

[justshe]

I didn't see the Congressional delegation.....did anyone else?

[Lauratealeaf]

Rabbi from the navy giving the invocation. Very beautiful.

Yes, speaking from the Psalms as he prays.

[Wait4Truth]

This President never seeks glory and attention...he is there to comfort and represent the sorrow of the country. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have do this.

[eddie willers]

but C-SPAN and NASA-TV (same feed) are the places to watch

Thanks for the heads up.
I tuned to NASA-TV (channel 213 on Dish Network)

It seems "right" to watch it there somehow.

[Howlin]

They still think we need them to tell us how to feel.

[leadpenny]

I see there is an Army Aviator with the rank of Warrant Officer W1 and a 10th Mountain Division patch on his left sleeve and a nametag that says, McCool.

[Howlin]

Yes, it does. I will change also!

[Miss Marple]

Rabbi: "No one who ever trusts in You will be forsaken."

Now praying in Hebrew.

[ken5050]

Some of the new ones are pretty good..."On Eagles' Wings" would be very appropraite today, no?
