Happy Anniversary

Wow, overall, the show was great! A highlight was John's performance. Although it didn't MOVE me like most of his performances do, it was nice.

Rosa Parks was laid to rest this evening. Her funeral services were held earlier today.

Such an amazing program this afternoon, from what I understand.

People were waiting since 6 pm yesterday to get inside the church. It started somewhere between 11:30 and noon and lasted until around 6pm today. It lasted so long, because there were SO many dignataries there, a lot who were supposed to be there and a lot who were not *on the program* (Mrs. Clinton, Barack Obama, etc).

The procession started with a horse drawn hearse, but in the interest of time, they switched to one of those old fashioned Cadillac hearses.

There is a parade of people following the caravan of limos and cars in the processional, as well as people lining the streets all the way to the cemetary (which is a straight shot down 7 Mile Rd.)

It's been broadcast on tv all day. It's very amazing to watch. I should be out there, but that's a take-the-day-off-work type of deal that I should have planned ahead for. There are school classes that were out there as a class project.

I'll regret not being out there to witness such history.



Why the hell is ANTM a recap show tonight??

CDs I bought today:










Eh, I pretty much don't feel like typing much else. I'll holla...
