    Talking about Carter definitely gets me in the mood to drink. That's for sure!

    They've blocked any news/media sites from my office in order to "help" cut down the drain on the system. It seems everyone is streaming it and it's crashing servers all over the damn place.

    Why do I not feel bad about this?????

    "Vice President Dick Cheney has arrived at the U.S. Capitol in a wheelchair for the inauguration of Barack Obama.

    Cheney was wheeled out behind President George W. Bush to take his place alongside dignitaries that included former Vice Presidents Al Gore, Dan Quayle and Walter Mondale.

    The White House says Cheney pulled a muscle in his back while moving boxes. He and his wife are moving into a new home outside Washington in McLean, Va. His doctor recommended that he use a wheelchair for the next couple of days."

    There was a shot earlier with Cheney's face behind the plexiglass. Kind of like a prison visiting room.

    Bush is probably wondering why Obama is using all of these big words.
